Legal Pathways to Establishing Paternity
In New York, paternity can be established through:
-
Voluntary Acknowledgment of Paternity (AOP): Signed by both parents at birth or later
-
Genetic (DNA) Testing: Court-ordered testing if paternity is contested
-
Family Court Petition: Legal proceedings to establish or disprove paternity
At Batarseh Pammer PLLC, we walk you through the appropriate steps for your situation, explain your legal options in plain terms, and prepare you for what to expect at every stage.
Asserting Parental Rights or Seeking Support
Once paternity is confirmed, our team can assist in taking the next legal steps:
-
Fathers may petition for custody, visitation, or joint decision-making authority
-
Mothers may seek child support orders to ensure financial support for the child
