Paternity Lawyer Maricopa County
Tempe Fathers' Rights Lawyer
Establishing paternity is important for a number of reasons. Most importantly, it legally establishes the relationship between father and child. Additionally, when paternity is established, a child:
- Can access the father's medical information
- Can seek insurance coverage through father's plan
- Can become a part of the father's estate plan
- May be eligible to receive Social Security benefits, veteran's benefits, and other benefits if the father becomes disabled or dies

Paternity Legal Matters
When a child is born to unmarried parents, it is necessary to establish paternity to legally establish the father/child relationship. This is typically done by administering a DNA test.
Once paternity is established, a father can seek child custody and visitation rights. Similarly, a mother can seek to enforce child support payments, as well as arrears from missed child support payments in the past. I can assist with these and other legal matters that may affect your family. In all family law matters, the state of Arizona and I personally, work in the best interests of the child.
