All citizens have the option to act as their own legal counsel in almost any legal matter, although that is not always the best choice. Contact the office of the clerk or administrator of the circuit court in the interested party's city or county of residence to obtain the information necessary for filing a proof of paternity petition.

The only was to prove this is with a court-ordered paternity test.
The paternity test is the proof. The court will subpoena the other parent and ask them to submit to a paternity test, which will determine if they are the biological parent or not.
If no paternity test was ever done can someone have the court order a DNA test?
If the court has established a child support order, violating the order and refusing to pay child support carries penalties up to and including jail time. If the order was established before a paternity test can be taken, you must still pay the child support. If the paternity test reveals that you are not the father, you will be reimbursed for the child support that you paid.
Yes, if paternity has not been already established.
Who the father is a very important question. You can find that out by requesting a court ordered paternity test for the suspected father. Then you can obtain a child support order and the father can arrange visitations.
Believe me, if you were ordered by the court to take a paternity test, there is no "right" to refuse it. The alternative to "refusing" the courts order is to suffer the consequences of a charge of "Contempt of Court."
