Paternity

 
 

What is a paternity case?

Paternity cases are legal proceedings used to establish a legal father. They can be requested by the mother, the father in-question, or the state. These cases can have life-altering effects on one’s personal and financial status. Once paternity is proven, a man can request visitation and custody rights, and also be asked to pay child support.
