PATERNITY

A paternity case is used to determine the biological father of a minor when the parties were not married at the time of the child’s birth. At Levin & Margolin, we provide representation for a wide variety of paternity matters. Our compassionate, effective attorneys take time to learn about your situation and develop a plan to achieve the result that is in the best interests of you and your family. We will work with you through the entire process, from DNA testing to establishing support, visitation, custody, and other parental rights.  A child’s parentage must first be determined in order to establish child support, child custody, and parenting time agreements. Marital status, along with DNA testing, plays a major role in the establishment of parentage.
