What else can I help you with?
In Texas would a step-dad get custody of a minor child if the mom died and the biological father has never been a part of the child's life?
The step father would have to adopt the child. For this to happen, the biological father would have to relinquish all rights through the court system.
If you have physical custody of a child in Virginia but the child has been living in Florida for 3 years with his father does the Virginia order still stand if the child wants to come back?
No, as it's been longer than six months
If a man signs the birth certificate and has been there since the birth of the child and find out 6 years later that he isn't the biological father what rights does he have to the child?
If you're in the US, he has the same rights as any other father, because he is the legal father (biological is irrelevant at this point).
Can the father of the child come in and take the child after the mother of the child has said no?
Yes..unless court has said otherwise. In fact if you have been denying the father access then you could lose custody.
In the state of Massachusetts if a biological father is unaware of a child and the child is adopted by his stepfather is the bio dad responsible for any back child support?
Well if the Bio father is unaware of the baby then I don't believe he has to pay child support because the mom decided that the father didn't need to know about the child and if the child is adopted (like me) either by a step dad or by a different set of parent AND the father know about the child Then the father would need to pay back child support.
If a father finds out he has a child after he is two years old do you still have to pay child support?
Yes. If paternity has been established the father will be required to pay child support until the child is at least eighteen.

In many states, she only has firm custody if she has already adopted the child.

What is the time frame for a child to be considered abandoned in Indiana?
Usually, abandonment can be claimed if the father has been out of the child's life for at least three years. This applies to mothers, also.

How do you get out of child support order you proved that you were not the father?
That depends on the child support laws of your state and how long you have been the legal or presumed father. In most states if you have been the legal father for at least four years it does not matter if you are not the child's biological father. You will still be held to be the child's legal father and required to pay child support unless you can locate the child's biological father. You have to actually file a petition in court to end your responsibility for child support and you really will need a family law attorney to assist you. The attached link has a family law attorney directory. In most States you can file a Petition to Disestablish Paternity. You generally must be current on your child support payments to do so. With the DNA evidence you can get the child support abated if you are not the Father.
Should a soon to be father celebrate Father's Day?

A man and a woman were living together unmarried and he took care of her daughter for ten years and he has been the only father the child knows can he be legally obligated to pay child support.?
That was good faith ;but he is not the biological father and no court will make him pay for being there as a father figure. Main thing , he is not the biological father. That is the one that needs to pay the 10 years and from now on. A lawyer and the court can help with this.
