Best Answer

When a child is conceived or born during a marriage, the law presumes that the husband is the father. However, this presumption can be overcome by an acknowledgment of paternity or genetic testing.

Clarification: In other words; if you can get your wife to name the man - and successfully have him DNA tested - you MIGHT be able to escape the responsibility for childcare until they reach the age of majority. As unfair as it may seem, if you cannot accomplish the identification of the suspected father - you're out of luck.

Does a man always get custody when there is an affair?

No, a man does not always get custody. If one of the people in a marriage has an affair, it is usually the person not having an affair that gets custody of the child or children.For example, if the husband is having an affair, and the wife wants a divorce, the woman (wife) would get the custody of the child or children, and not the man (husband). This is the same vice versa, too.

Wife has an affair and gets pregnant tells her husband and the husband is wanting to work it out with the wife. Should they get a paternity test and should they file for child support?

If the man she had the affair with wants to know if it is his child then yes, a paternity test should be done. This will tell whether the husband or the man she had the affair with is the father. If the father of the child wants to be part of his child's life then arrangements should be made for visitation rights, but, he should agree to help support his own child even if she stays with her husband. He might agree to be called 'uncle' so the child will not know that is his biological father This is a difficult situation and it will take the three of you to agree as to what will happen tin the future. It is quite possible that the man she had the affair with my not want anything to do with the child. If the wife and husband feel they can work it out in their marriage they should certainly try.


What do you if your wife had an affair with a black man and got pregnant by him?

Why does it matter if he's black? Would you not care if he was hispanic? Or white? Or asian? Is your wife sorry that she had this affair? Does she want your forgiveness? If so, you have to decide if you want the marriage to continue. If you do, then you have to decide whether you and your wife are going to arrange an abortion, or have the child and raise it as your own.
