She was assigned by the court for the custody part of the divorce, and hasn't given me any advice on this matter beyond "you'll need to say in court that he isn't the father".

Don't know about NY specifically but a number of jurisdictions will not finalize a divorce while the wife is pregnant. There really needs to be a seperate action for paternity along with the divorce to straighten matters out.
I would think the bio dad could file an acknowlegement of paternity so his name could be added to the birth certificate. Check with your state dept of child support services or some other similar department.
