More details to this question:
I found out through a paternity test that the man who signed my daughter’s birth certificate isn’t the biological father. How can I have him removed from her birth certificate and her real dad added? I don’t know if this affects the situation in any way but the man who signed now has permanent brain damage and can’t legally make his own decisions. So he would be unable to sign anything and his family is not an option to involve.

You would have to apply for an amended birth certificate for your child and follow state procedures on processing that application. I would get a lawyer to make sure that it is processed correctly so that there are no delays or denials.
