Establishing Paternity in California

As a Los Angeles family law attorney, Charles M. Green can help you resolve any dispute about the parentage of your child(ren.)

In general, the law considers the husband to be the father if the parents were married when the child was born. Parents who are not married when a child is born can sign a voluntary declaration of paternity to establish paternity. These steps simplify matters.

However, people who are not married may not be able to agree about parentage. These decisions are especially important when seeking child support, child custody, or child visitation rights. Our practice can guide you in establishing your rights.

 

Paternity and DNA Testing

If you and the parent of a child are not married and cannot agree about parentage, the court can order genetic testing.

The mother, child, and alleged father will be required to submit to these blood tests. If a party refuses, the court can automatically decide against him or her. The judge may also rule on child support, custody, and visitation as part of the same case.
