OF COURSE he can refuse, but what are the contents of the letter and why did he choose to refuse? There may be a good reason why the attorney doesn't think it is wise to send the letter. Can someone else in the family do it?
The letter is a letter promised by a birth mother, now deceased, to her adopted -out child. That child is my wife. Is it legal to open a sealed letter like this or withhold it.
