Do you need to be certain that the 18-year support obligation you will commit to as a father is undertaken with correct parentage identities confirmed? Review your legal options and obligations before signing a declaration of parentage. Talk to an experienced lawyer about all related issues with confidence.
In the eyes of the law, parentage is determined in California when a parent files a Petition to Establish a Parental Relationship. If there is a question about who the father of a child is, then both parents must provide blood for a paternity test. Establishing parentage in this manner is widely accepted, and it is unlikely that courts will go against a DNA test finding.
The legal consequences of a determination that someone is the father of a child include the responsibility to pay child support as well as the right to child custody and visitation. If you receive an order to provide a DNA test or are attempting to compel a former partner to provide blood, our experienced, compassionate lawyers can assist you.
