Filing for Paternity
Men as well as women are entitled to file a Verified Complaint to Establish Paternity. We tailor our legal services to the needs of our clients in cases involving paternity. We can help women get the child support and custody they deserve in family court. We can help men make sure their rights are protected, and they are able to have a meaningful relationship with their child(ren).
Disestablishment of Paternity
Under certain circumstances, a man may doubt the paternity of a child or children he previous thought were his. Until 2006, if a man signed a birth certificate and later found out the child was not his, there was nothing he could do. Now, under certain specific circumstances, if a man is told or has reason to believe the child is not his, he can file a Petition to Disestablish Paternity and request a paternity test. If the disestablishment is granted, he will no longer be required to pay child support. Sadly, the law does not provide for the return of all the money he may have paid over the years for a child that was not his.
