Establishing paternity is a relatively simple process through a paternity test, but you need to ensure that your rights and the rights of your child are protected in the process. As with many other forms of family law, your child's best interests are of highest concern. Many obligations and responsibilities come with paternity, and the detailed work of a knowledgeable lawyer can be vital in enforcing obligations such as child support and protecting parental rights.
