Establishing paternity is important
For unwed parents that may not see eye-to-eye, establishing paternity will likely be among your top priorities. Fathers need to establish paternity to obtain custody, visitation, child support, and to provide health insurance and other benefits to their children. Conversely, mothers may need to establish a father’s paternity to obtain child support from the father. And in other situations, one party may want to use a paternity case to prove that a man is not, in fact, the father of a child.
