Fathers Seeking to Establish Paternity
For fathers, the establishment of paternity may be the only way to secure rights in regards to the child. Disputes with the biological mother may have limited your ability to simply see your child let alone having a voice in the raising of your own child. We understand how critical it can be for fathers to know that they are able to co-parent their children and are able to be there for their children in a way that is legally recognized and cannot be denied.
The establishment of paternity by a father will grant him rights to custody and visitation as well as the duty of child support. Further, establishing paternity will confer a variety of rights to your children that can include coverage under your health insurance plan and rights to inheritance and in probate should you die intestate.
