Paternity
Addison and Dallas, Texas, Paternity Law Attorney
Paternity laws were put in place to protect the rights of parents in several different circumstances. Paternity laws help women who wish to receive child support payments from their child's father. Paternity laws help fathers who wish to gain the legal right to visit with and have a relationship with their child. And paternity laws can come into play in divorce proceedings, as spouses work to determine responsibility for minor children.
The Law Office of Justin Wallace provides skilled, experienced and knowledgeable legal representation in the resolution of paternity disputes. We have helped mothers and fathers across North Texas pursue and achieve their parenting and child support rights.
Helping Mothers Pursue Child Support and Other Rights.
If you are a mother who has questions regarding your right to child support from your child's father, we can help. Paternity questions can arise whether you are single, married, or live or lived with your child's father.
A paternity suit can mandate your child's alleged father to submit to DNA testing to legally establish whether he is your child's father. If the findings warrant, we can represent you to determine an appropriate child support payment amount, establish the father's binding legal obligation to make support payments, and pursue enforcement of payments if the father fails to make payments or falls behind in his payments.
Helping Fathers Pursue Their Paternity Rights.
We also work with fathers who have been denied visitation rights and other rights necessary to have a relationship with their child, or who have experienced no difficulty regarding father's rights, but wish to create a legal relationship between themselves and their child.
