Why Establishing Benbrook Paternity is Essential
Unmarried fathers in Texas do not automatically receive legal parental rights. Unlike mothers, they face significant legal
hurdles to be fully involved in their child’s life.
The process of establishing paternity can be complicated, often requiring legal intervention and court petitions.
When you establish paternity, you unlock numerous benefits for both you and your child, including the right to actively participate in their upbringing, provide them with a secure future, and ensure they receive support from both parents.
It also allows your child to access your medical history and inherit your wealth in the future.
If you’re ready to take this important step, Davis and Associates, Attorneys at Law is here to guide you through every phase, ensuring the process is thorough, smooth, and fair.
How Paternity is Established in Texas
There are three pathways to establish paternity in Texas, depending on your situation.
- Legal Presumption: You are presumed to be the father if you were married to the child’s mother at the time of birth or within 300 days before birth.
- Acknowledgment of Paternity: Fathers not married to the mother can sign this legal form, supported by a DNA test, to confirm their paternity.
- Court Order: If the mother disputes paternity, the court may order a DNA test to establish legal recognition.
If you need assistance in understanding these options or disputing paternity, Davis and Associates, Attorneys at Law will provide guidance tailored to your unique case.
Terminating Paternity
There are cases where an alleged father may need to legally challenge paternity. This process requires filing a formal petition with the court, followed by a review of the evidence presented.
If the court finds the claims valid, the father’s parental rights will be terminated, and his name will be removed from the birth certificate.
Termination proceedings are no easy task—it’s a long and highly detailed process.
At Davis and Associates, Attorneys at Law, we are committed to equipping you with the necessary tools, knowledge, and support to face this challenge confidently.
Understanding Your Rights as a Divorced Father
If you were married to the child’s mother at the time of birth, you automatically retain parental rights after divorce. However, if those rights are being obstructed, you have the legal power to enforce them.
Fathers facing resistance in exercising their rights can count on Davis and Associates, Attorneys at Law.
We’ll help gather the evidence needed to present your case in court and advocate for modifications, ensuring the best possible outcome for you and your child.
