Establishing Legal Paternity for Child Support or Health Insurance Coverage
Often, it is important for families to legally establish paternity to identify who is the father of a child.
If a child’s paternity is established through legal proceedings, that child can claim financial benefits that may not otherwise be collected from the father. These benefits include child support, health insurance coverage, rights to Social Security benefits and inheritance.
Additionally, establishing paternity can also benefit fathers seeking parenting time with their children and participations in decisions that affect their children’s upbringing and education.
