Fathers' Rights and Mothers' Right to Child Support
With fewer couples getting married and having children, complex legal issues can arise for unmarried parents. Hickey & Turim S.C. is a Milwaukee-area law firm committed to helping clients protect their rights and interests in paternity disputes. Our paternity attorneys have more than 35 years of experience and can successfully handle all aspects of your case.
Paternity cases arise most often between unmarried partners. A mother may request DNA testing to prove the paternity of her child, or a father may request paternity testing to disprove paternity or assert his rights as a father. In any case, it is important to have a complete understanding of your rights and obligations before pursuing paternity testing. You will also want an attorney working on your behalf to protect your interests involving support or custody.
Establishing Paternity for Your Child
If you are pregnant or have recently had a baby and you are unmarried, establishing paternity is very important to your rights as well as the best interests of your child. Our lawyers will help you get an appropriate court order to establish paternity while also pursuing your rights to child support.
Fathers Seeking Placement and Custody
We represent fathers who are seeking placement or custody rights. Our goal is to help you identify your interests, establish grounds for paternity and aggressively pursue your custody rights. Understanding the stress that our clients face, we will work to minimize the personal and financial impacts of a legal dispute and secure the best possible resolution to your case. Remember that custody could also create an obligation for child support. We will also work to ensure that your obligations are not unmanageable.
