Establishing Paternity
Paternity can be established through a paternity test. The mother, alleged father, and child in question generally submit to a blood test. When and if paternity is established, fathers often have many questions.
- Can I spend time with my child?
- Can I assert any parental rights?
- Can the courts help me assert my rights?
- How does this affect child support and child custody?
Generally, the father of a child must be determined prior to orders for child support, child custody, and visitation.
When a child is born to a married couple, there is a presumption of paternity. However, when a child is born to unmarried parents, paternity must be established in order to create a legal relationship. As a lawyer with over 30 years of experience in complex family law issues, I understand the stress of a paternity suit. I understand what is at stake for my clients.
I approach my clients' concerns directly, encouraging phone calls and questions. I listen to what is important to my clients and formulate legal strategies based on this knowledge. For help with a paternity issue, please contact my firm to arrange your free consultation.
