Dahlonega Paternity Lawyer

Cumming Legitimation Attorney

Legitimation is the legal process for establishing parental rights. In Georgia, unless a parent is legally legitimate, he or she has no rights.

Once declared legitimate, a parent can gain rights to a child, including visitation rights and in making important decision on his or her behalf. Further, a legitimated parent can be obligated to pay child support.

As a result, parents of both sexes may have reasons for establishing, or disproving the legitimacy of a child.

At the law firm of David Wallace and Associates, P.C., we have helped many parents in northeast Atlanta and northeast Georgia to determine the legitimacy (or paternity) of a child. We frequently help parents prove their relationships to children and guarantee the parenting rights they seek.

Establishing legitimacy of a child is important because of the profound effects it can have on the child's emotional and financial circumstances. Not only can it give a child the peace of mind of knowing who his or her parents are, it can also provide the child with numerous rights and benefits, including rights to potential child support, health insurance, Social Security, military and other benefits.

Legitimacy can be determined in any of the following ways:

  • Through marriage
  • Through a parent's signed admission
  • Adoption
  • DNA testing

If you wish to legally establish your child's legitimacy, it is important to move quickly. The longer you delay, the harder it will be for you to successfully claim parental rights and/or responsibilities.

At David Wallace and Associates, P.C., we represent parents on both sides of legitimation disputes. Our belief is that a child is better off whenever he or she has access to an emotionally, financially and morally fit parent.

To that end, we strive to help parents gain legitimacy rights that will benefit both themselves and their children.
