Establishing Paternity - Fathers Rights after Paternity
Each of a child's parents has a responsibility to support the child and a right to maintain a strong parent-child relationship. When a married couple has a child, the law generally recognizes the husband as the father. When an unmarried woman has a child, paternity often needs to be established. In that case, a dna test will be used to show whether or not someone is the biological father. The results of the dna test are then used by the court as evidence of parentage.
At Stolar & Associates in Los Angeles, our attorneys in paternity cases deal primarily with two issues; the responsibility of a father to make child support payments to the child's mother, and the right of an unmarried father to share in custody and visitation.
