In Kentucky, both parents, whether or not the child was born during the marriage, have equal parental rights and responsibilities. It is important to establish paternity if you wish to assert those rights or enforce the responsibilities. At the Law Offices of Jan Kreutzer, I help parents seeking to establish paternity and to defend against paternity petitions.

As a lawyer who understands how complex paternity issues can affect your rights and obligations, I do what is necessary to resolve issues through collaborative law. I use mediation and collaborative law to resolve paternity disputes in a way that is favorable to all parties involved.

Determining the Paternity of a Child — Parental and Fathers' Rights

When the paternity of a child is in question, the court must establish who is the rightful father. This is necessary for a parent to establish parental rights and for a parent to impose parental responsibilities on another party. When establishing paternity, courts will use DNA testing. Here are some of the situations when paternity must be established:

• When a parent determines that a child is not really his
• Where a father of a child born is not permitted custody or visitation of his child
• When a parent believes that another person is not the parent
• When a parent is seeking child support for a child
