You will need to file a paternity lawsuit in court. The court will then order that a paternity test be done to determine whether you are the father of the child. I strongly recommend that you talk with a family law attorney before filing a lawsuit. A listing of family law attorneys is available in your local phonebook.

A paternity test can determine if there is a parent-child relationship between two people. A paternity test would give genetic proof of that relationship.


What happens if the father refuses to acknowledge paternity?

A DNA test can be taken to prove it. The natural mother can order it to be done. If a judgment has already been ordered for child support, then you will have to appeal with your lawyer and have a DNA test to prove you are not the father. Only the court or the state's department of child support enforcement can order someone to take a paternity test. A paternity/parentage suit is treated the same as any lawsuit. Before the unmarried mother can receive child support she must file a suit in the state circuit court in her county of residence. The male named as the alledged father will be served with a summons with the court designation, date and time he is to appear. The defendant can appear in court with or without legal counsel and contest the suit, in which case a paternity test will be ordered. If the defendant fails to request a continuance or does not appear at the hearing the court will enter a default judgment for child support.
