Legally establishing paternity is important when considering the best interests of a child as well as the father’s rights and obligations related to their child.

Establishing paternity is a crucial component in legal matters regarding:

Child Support

- Establishing paternity ensures that both parents contribute to the child's upbringing and welfare.

Child Custody & Visitation

-Determining paternity is necessary to determine the father's rights to custody and visitation.

Estate Planning & Benefits

-When paternity is established, the child may have rights to inheritance from the father's estate and various benefits such as social security, medical benefits and life insurance.

Medical History & Benefits

-Established paternity provides the child with the medical history and genetic information of their father. This can be vital for assessing potential health risks and ensuring appropriate medical care for the lifetime of the child.
