Different Individuals Have Different Goals For Establishing Paternity
While paternity can be used to establish or dispute the identity of the biological father, there are often unintended outcomes. For example, a mother might seek to establish paternity to hold the biological father financially responsible for his child. She might win the legal battle, but has now given the father the right of custody or visitation. Conversely, the man who chooses to prove he is the father to gain access to the child now finds himself obligated to make child support payments. A skilled fathers’ rights attorney can help you understand the big picture of this legal process.
In some instances, DNA testing is completed to dispute parentage. If you are being held financially accountable for a child you do not believe to be yours, a DNA test can be used to clearly answer these concerns. Schedule a confidential consultation with a lawyer at our firm.
