If the parents are unmarried the father must establish his paternity legally.

However, a father may be awarded joint custody or/and a visitation schedule. He should seek the help of an attorney who specializes in custody issues.

If the mother retains physical custody she can request that the court issue a child support order. If the father gets physical custody he can request a child support order.
