Understanding the Impact of Paternity

In Texas, establishing paternity is an important legal process that confers a number of rights and obligations upon a child's father. These rights include the ability to seek custody or visitation rights, as well as the obligation to provide financial support in the form of child support. Paternity can be established through several methods, including voluntary acknowledgment, presumption, or court adjudication.

Voluntary acknowledgment involves the signing of an Acknowledgement of Paternity Form by both the mother and father. This form may be executed at the hospital at the time of the child's birth or at a later date through the office of vital records. Once signed and filed, the acknowledgment can be difficult to revoke, although there are limited circumstances in which it may be possible.

Presumption is another method of establishing paternity that applies when a child is born during a marriage or within a certain timeframe following a divorce, or when a man continuously lives with the child for the first two years of their life and represents to others that the child is his. The presumed father is recognized as the legal father unless he signs a denial of paternity or the court orders otherwise.

Finally, paternity may be adjudicated through a court proceeding initiated by the mother, father, or child. Genetic testing may be ordered to confirm or refute paternity, and the court will issue an order based on the results of the test. The process of establishing paternity can be complex, and individuals seeking to establish paternity should consult with an experienced family law attorney to ensure that their rights and interests are protected.

Jon Dean Green

★★★★★

I turned to Ball Morse Lowe PLCC when I needed my mother's estate probated in Oklahoma. It involved mineral rights and I live in California and my mother had not lived in OK for over 60 years. I wanted a firm that would do this correctly and be reasonable in cost. Brian Hill was a pleasure to work with. He and his staff were professional, knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. They made the experience of probate painless, explained things as we went along, and were clear in their expectation of what they would need from me to move the process forward. I am so glad I found them and appreciate deeply all they accomplished on my behalf.
