Child
Paternity
refers to the process of legally establishing who
the father of a child is through scientific methods;
typically a blood test or DNA swab analysis.
Establishing the paternity of a child is
important for a number of reasons.
Paternity tests
may be requested by either the mother, a father who
has concerns about the paternity of their child, a
man who is told that he is the father of a child, or
a man who suspects a child is his biological
offspring but is told the child is not his.
Child Paternity
issues often arise in cases involving child support,
but they can also be important in relation to
adoption, inheritance, custody and visitation,
health care, and other issues.

Child paternity
is an important process which aids in various legal
situations, such as:
-
To provide the child with a needed identity, or
to verify a child's identity;
-
To help establish a health history of both the
Mother and Father for medical care and treatment
of the child;
-
To establish or disprove paternity for the
purpose of determining whether child support is
owed;
-
To allow the child to be covered by health
insurance, social security, inheritance and
veteran's benefits;
-
Paternity also may allow the parties involved to
seek public assistance where they qualify;
-
Establishing paternity may entitle such child by
succession or inheritance to receive property
from his or her biological father.
