Adoption Law
  All States      
Do biological grandparents have any rights after an adoption?

The biological parents’ parental rights are terminated when a child is adopted. However, some states are sympathetic to the plight of the biological grandparents and will grant them rights in limited situations, such as an adoption by a stepparent when a biological parent has died, or when the parents divorce.
