  1. How Is Paternity Established?

  2. Establishing a child’s paternity can be done through paternity DNA tests to determine whether someone is the biological father. These tests may be necessary during paternity lawsuits if the potential father is not taking on parental responsibilities. These tests may also be necessary if a mother is denying a father his rights to the child. However, these tests are not always necessary.

  3. If the parents were unmarried when the child was born but then decide to get married, they can sign a “legitimation form” that says both parents have the rights and obligations they would have had if the child had been born while they were married.

  4. Why Does Establishing Paternity Matter? Establishing paternity is important for couples because it ensures that their child will get the parental support they need that can be backed up by the court.

  5. However, in the event of a divorce or separation, the state requires that both parents continue to support their children. Establishing paternity will help ensure the child receives the required child support after a separation. It will also ensure that the father maintains their legal child custody and visitation rights.
