Why Establishing Paternity Matters

Establishing paternity is crucial—it determines a father's legal rights and responsibilities. It impacts several important areas, including:

• Child Support: Both parents are responsible for contributing to their child’s financial well-being.

• Custody and Visitation: It grants a father the right to seek custody or visitation arrangements, helping create stability for the child.

• Emotional Bonding: Legally recognizing the father’s relationship with the child is essential for both emotional connection and legal standing.
