Paternity

When Paternity of a Child Must be Established

Do you need to establish paternity of a child? The Odum Law Firm can help. We are experienced with matters related to family law, child support, and more. So when is paternity testing needed?

Obviously, not all fathers have a problem with taking a paternity test. Or providing assistance to their children. But there are also fathers who need to be financially responsible for their children. And paternity testing is needed.

Attorney Bill Odum can offer you a free consultation to help you understand the process of establishing paternity. And the responsibilities of the father, once paternity is proven. So what are the benefits of proving the relationship between father and child?

Once the relationship is confirmed, some benefits can include disclosure of the father’s medical records. Which offers a better understanding of your child’s present and future health. We can determine if the child could potentially receive an inheritance. Or eligibility for death or social security benefits for the father. Other benefits include making a petition for child support, or receiving financial aid.
