How do I prove paternity?


(Ft. Lauderdale)

I'm trying to get visitation with my son. I lived with his mom, but we were never married. After we split up, she was fine for a long time, and let me see him just about every time I asked. Now she has a new boyfriend, and they're not letting me see my son at all. My boy is two years old now, and he definitely is mine. Everyone knows that he is my son, he looks just like me. My name is on the birth certificate. What do I do so they can't keep my son from me anymore? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Paternity
by: Staff, FALDP

On the Florida Supreme Court's site, www.flcourts.org there are Supreme Court approved family law forms for pro se litigants. One of those is called:

Petition to Determine Paternity and for Related Relief - Form 12.983(a)

Since you were never married to the mother, in order to assert your paternal rights and have regular visitation with your son, you need a court order granting you visitation (timesharing).

Read the instructions on the form carefully. The instructions explain which other forms must also be filed. This information is not intended to replace legal advice. Please seek counsel if you need legal advice.
