Common Reasons to Establish Paternity
If two parents are married at the time of a child's birth, the law does not usually question paternity. However, if you and the other parent of your child were not married at the time of the birth, you may have to take action to establish paternity. This can typically be done with simple DNA testing, although it may get more complex if the other parent is unwilling to cooperate. Our Grand Rapids family law attorney can work with you to enforce your rights.
Establishing paternity has many purposes, including:
- Parents can work together to establish a parenting plan
- Child can receive financial support from both parents
- Child can receive medical insurance from the other parent
- Father can put his name on the child's birth certificate
- Father can seek visitation or custody rights
