Lansing, KS - DNA Testing

Experts Say...

The Henry Law Firm, serving Lansing, KS, explains what it means to establish paternity. "Paternity is the legal status that confers upon a man the rights and responsibilities of a father," the law firm explained. "When a couple is married, the law presumes the husband is the father of all children born during the marriage. But when a couple is not married, there is no such presumption. Legal steps are necessary before a man can be held accountable for a child or enjoy any of the benefits of fatherhood." The law firm said unmarried parents can establish paternity voluntarily or by a paternity action. "Most often, a paternity action is a precursor to a mother's petition for child support and/or a father's petition for visitation rights. Since a finding of paternity imposes the legal status of a father on a man, it also establishes the legal grounds for those responsibilities and privileges."

Establishing Paternity in Lansing, KS

Establishing paternity allows mothers to seek child support and fathers to request parenting time. Children benefit the most from having a legal father. Once paternity is established, children receive financial support from both parents, access to medical information from both families, the right to inheritance, and other available benefits. The easiest way to establish paternity in Lansing is by signing an Acknowledgment of Paternity, a voluntary form stating the child's legal father. If the parents cannot agree to sign a paternity acknowledgment, they can establish paternity with a court order. For help establishing paternity, Lansing parents can contact the Leavenworth County Child Support Services Office, located at 515 Limit Suite 100 in Leavenworth.

Proving Paternity for Child Custody Purposes in Lansing, KS

If either parent is unsure of the child's biological father, they should not sign an Acknowledgment of Paternity until they take a DNA test to prove paternity. The judge may also require DNA testing if establishing paternity in court. DNA testing accurately determines whether a man is the child's biological father. DNA test samples are taken by swabbing the inside of the child's and alleged father's cheek and then analyzed in a certified lab.
