Paternity Actions in Florida

Paternity, as defined by law, is the legal recognition of a man's relationship as a parent, between himself and a child. This includes his duties, rights and responsibilities to that child. When a child is born out of wedlock, that child does not automatically have a legal father without a paternity action to ascertain the identity of the father. When a child is born to a married woman, that child is presumed to have been fathered by her husband and as the presumed father of the child, her husband is assigned certain duties and responsibilities by law. But when there is cause for doubt as to the true biological father, a paternity action may be initiated by any of the parties involved.

Reasons to Establish Paternity

Various methods of establishing paternity exist using DNA testing. It is important to establish paternity for a number of reasons, including:

  • Obtaining child support;
  • Being released from court-ordered child support for a child that is not your own;
  • Determining child time-sharing and visitation ("parenting plan");
  • Obtaining a visitation schedule so you may be involved in the raising of your child; and
  • Parental health history as an important piece of information for your child's future health issues

Dealing with the highly emotional issue of paternity and arriving at a successful outcome requires the help of an attorney who has knowledge of the complex laws, patience, and an unwavering commitment to protecting the rights of his client. We are dedicated to providing the kindof guidance that is needed to achieve the best possible outcome for those who he represents.

Establish or Disestablish Paternity
