Even after an adoption has been finalized, the court can usually overturn it. However, there are tight restrictions governing how this is accomplished. The natural or adoptive parents of the adopted kid are the only ones who can submit a petition for reversal. Once the adoption has been legally accomplished, it cannot be undone. The decision to terminate parental rights is legally binding. Because of the seriousness of the decision to terminate parental rights, every state takes substantial efforts to guarantee that the rights of the birth parents are completely safeguarded.
