Paternity
Fremont Paternity Attorney
Establishing Paternity in California
At my law office in Fremont, I can explain your legal options in regard to paternity matters:
- Unmarried mothers — A paternity test may be necessary to legally establish the identity of the father. Once the identity of the father is confirmed, child support payments can be sought.
- Alleged fathers — If you are not married to the mother of your alleged child and you did not sign a voluntary declaration of paternity, you may need to take a paternity test to prove parentage. Once done, your parental rights are the same as those of a father who is married to the child’s mother.
The importance of the role of a father cannot be stressed enough. Once the identity of a father is legally established, there are no legal restraints preventing a fulfilling and nurturing relationship between father and child.
