Whether you are a mother determined to find out who the father of your child is, for reasons of child support, or a father eager to exercise child custody and visitation rights, our respected family law firm can help you.
Fathers should be aware, however, that you have no rights until paternity is established. That goes for areas of support, custody, visitation, parental planning or relocation. When you're serious about stepping up and accepting responsibilities as a father, we will be here for you. It's also important to remember that putative fathers have a right to challenge the adoption of their child if the adoption has not been finalized. However, in order to challenge the planned adoption of your child you must first establish paternity. Even after paternity is established, there may be an attempt to terminate your parental rights. Our office can review the specifics of your case and discuss the legal options available to you.
