Paternity Actions in Glen Burnie

Legal issues involving the paternity of a child are often complicated by the deep-seated emotions both parents have regarding the child. It is important to work with an experienced Glen Burnie divorce attorney who can help you achieve your objectives in the case with a minimum of confrontation between you and the other parent. The resolution of disagreements over q uestions of paternity, your desires for child custody and child visitation, and an obligation to pay child support, can be expedited by working with an attorney who knows the requirements of Maryland family law and can help you bring pressure to bear if you face resistance.

Our firm represents men on both sides of the issue of paternity, those who want to prove that they are the biological parent of a child and those who want to establish that they are not when a mother is demanding child support. We have a background in this type of case and can help you receive the necessary testing and assemble the documentation you need to prove the facts of the situation. We also help mothers who want to establish paternity.

Another matter that we frequently assist with is when a father wants a child custody modification to make it possible for him to see his children more often or to gain primary custody. Even when the mother is in agreement to the change, it is necessary to petition the court for a legal modification. If you face opposition from the mother, we will help you exercise your legal rights and go to court if necessary. The most important objective in any paternity action is to satisfy the needs of the children, and it is important to persuade the judge that your goals line up with what is in their best interests.
