San Diego Paternity Attorneys

Paternity Suit - Child Support - Establishment Hearing

Phone: 619-284-4113

Based in San Diego, the paternity lawyers at Wilkinson & Finkbeiner, LLP, represent mothers and fathers throughout southern California with issues related to establishing paternity.

Paternity suits or parentage actions arise when a child is born outside of martial relationship or there is uncertainty or a disagreement regarding the identity of the child's father. Mothers will use a paternity action to establish parentage to either set a child support obligation or to establish custody or visitation rights.  Fathers can file a paternity action to establish a parent-child relationship and obtain orders for custody, visitation and support. 

Highly Experienced San Diego Paternity Attorneys

Whether you are seeking a paternity action to obtain child support or to avoid paying child support for a child you believe may not be biological child, or to establish custody and visitation rights, our experienced attorneys look forward to working with you.

In addition to obtaining orders for child custody and child support, typical issues involved in a paternity action include obtaining a paternity test, obtaining a judgment for paternity or setting aside a default judgment of paternity through either Family Court or Department of Child Support Services (DCSS).  Finally, a parentage action can be used to change the name of a child on a birth certificate.
