Chino Hills Paternity Lawyer
If you have had a child out of wedlock, there may be unanswered questions regarding your rights as a father. You may have been present for the birth of your child and signed the birth certificate. You may have believed that signing the birth certificate was sufficient to create your rights as a parent. Unfortunately, it is not enough.
For a father to have any paternal rights, he must first file for paternity. It is a common misconception that paternity suits necessarily involve DNA testing. Often, a DNA test is not necessary given the weight of other evidence such as the mother agreeing that you are the father of the child. Once paternity has been established, a father will need to file for custody in a separate proceeding. This will be akin to the child custody and visitation component of a divorce. This is also when child support may be addressed.

Why You Need a Paternity Lawyer in Los Angeles
A major breakthrough in paternity testing is DNA profiling. The scientist in a DNA test will examine the genetic material that a child inherits from their biological parents. The child’s genetics will then be compared to the mother, the characteristics that are not found in the mother are determined to be the fathers. If the genetic characteristics are not found in a male, he can be excluded as the father. DNA testing is over 99.9{821d9a30f9dbda257d70b4b9f28e9d4ba9aeead45d75f83e6bba923d46eac295} accurate at determining the father, even before the child has been born.
