National organizations want to hear from you

Posted by Matt Allen in paternity , domestic violence

A new national survey, said to be the first of its kind, will examine the emotional, financial, legal, and social impact of paternity fraud on men.

Carnell Smith, director of U.S. Citizens Against Paternity Fraud, and Sharon Squires, assistant professor of sociology at California State University-Dominguez Hills, are heading the survey’s efforts.

"We know very little formally about how men react to learning that they are not the biological father of a child they thought they had fathered," said Squires. "Men have few places to turn for help when they find themselves in this situation. With this survey we want to get a baseline understanding of this very important issue which has profound implications for society and for a child's right to know their identity."

Ask A Lawyer: My Brother Is Not Married, But Doesn't He Still Have Parental Rights?

Posted by pmcmahon in Visitation , paternity , Parenting , parental rights , Erik Carter , Cordell Cordell, PC , Ask A Lawyer

Question:

My little brother is having issues with his on/off girlfriend who keeps taking their daughter away from him and then she decides to come back to him. He supports both of them, and she doesn't work or even go to school. I would like to help him have custody over their daughter but I don't know where to start. Does he have any rights if he is not married to the mother of his child? Any help you can provide me to start the process of getting some type of custody would be greatly appreciated.

Ask A Lawyer: Can She Move After An Order Of Paternity Is Served?

Posted by pmcmahon in Rules , Richard Coffee , Procedures , paternity , out of state , order , Cordell Cordell, PC , Ask A Lawyer

Question:

When my son was born, his mother would not have my name placed on the birth certificate.  By her own admission, this was done to negate my rights to him. We were not married.

I filed an order for paternity to have my rights established. After she was served, she quit her job, cancelled the lease on her apartment, and moved to Florida within 5 days.

Is there any law that states a child cannot be removed from the state after being served?

Ask A Lawyer: Can I Prevent My Ex From Jumping State With Our Son?

Posted by pmcmahon in paternity , Parenting , Erik Carter , custody rights , custody , Cordell Cordell, PC , Ask A Lawyer

Question:

My fiancée and I have had a son together and he carries my last name. Now, she wants to leave me and go out of state to live with her friends, taking our son with her. I work fulltime and she has not had a job for over a year now. What rights do I have as a father to get custody or to keep her from jumping state with our son? I have family in the area that is willing to help me take care of him and raise him.  I’m afraid that all she has are her online friends which makes me a nervous.
