Representation Fathers in Family Law Matters
Statistically speaking, fathers generally spend less time and have less access to their children following divorce compared to mothers. However, today fathers are just as likely as mothers to be awarded child custody rights by Georgia family law courts. If you are facing divorce — or if you are an unmarried father — it is important to work with an attorney who understands the importance of the father/child relationship. I can help you in the following areas:
- Child custody — One of the most important matters that needs to be settled when parents divorce is child custody. I work with mothers and fathers to develop a child custody and visitation schedule that benefits all involved
- Child support — Both parents have an obligation to provide financial support to their children. I represent clients in initial child support determinations, as well as modifications if a change to child support is needed.
- Paternity — Before a father can be required to pay child support in Georgia, paternity must be established. I can help you seek a DNA test to determine the paternity of the child in question.
- Legitimation — An unmarried father in Georgia will need to file for legitimation before seeking child custody and visitation rights. This action solidifies the legal relationship between a father and child.
