paternity
We care ABOUT YOU.
Let us help you with your paternity rights.
When two people who are not married have a child together and then later separate, they are faced with a very delicate situation. There is no automatic presumption of paternity in the State of Utah, based on the fact that the child was born outside of a legal marriage. In order to ensure paternity, custody and all other parental rights to the child, the parties must go through a court process.
We can help you with:
- Presumption of Paternity
- Children Born Outside of a Legal Marriage
- Determining Paternity, Custody and Rights to the Child
- Ordering Child Support to be Paid
- Establishing Parental Rights
During this process the court will establish paternity, award custody and other parental rights and order that support be paid for the benefit of the child. In doing so, both parents’ rights to the child are established, defined and protected. This process can be complicated and should not be attempted without sound legal counsel.
“My friend referred me to attorney Larsen to represent me in my divorce case. My friend stated that attorney Larsen can accomplish in six months what it takes most attorneys’ two years to accomplish. I hired attorney Larsen with high expectations and he did not disappoint me. Attorney Larsen is very knowledgeable, efficient and extremely hard working. I was pleased!” -B.W., Spanish Fork, Utah.
