The guy on my sons birth certificate is not the father. He signed AOP at hospital.Where do I go from here? I am devastated.
Can there be any legal trouble with this. What do I need to do? File for paternity test will they allow legal father to get off of birth certificate?
My son is 9 months old.
Please help me! I cannot afford a lawyer. We are in Illinois.
We need some information to reply. Are you married? Were you married at the time of conception? Is the person on the birth certificate the biological father? What relationship to you is the person on the BC? What is the relatioship of the person not on the BC? What is your legal question?
Sorry, I am not married and have never been married. I was in a really long relationship with the legal father. The biological father was just a one-night stand. Conception dates were not right or anything so we are all 3 at a shock.
Please do not give me trouble I just want advice. I will NEVER make any mistake like this again.
What are our legal obligations? What if we get married? Bio dad does not care or want to be involved.
We are all ok with the situation right now. My question is later in life if bio dad changes his mind or legal dad what can happen?
We have heard if you sign the aop in il you only have so many months to object it and disestablish?
The guy who wrongly joined you in identifying himself as the father has sixty days from the date of submission of the AOP to file a Rescission of Voluntary Acknowledgment of Paternity. The biological father could bring a paternity action, if he wishes.
It has been over the 60 or 90 days. He does not want to file a disestablishment of paternity. At the time of birth we thought the child was his.
So since its been so many days is the child automatically his to say?
The bio father lives in a different state and doesn't care to mess with it meaning filing anything or seeing the kid. He just wanted to do the test because I did for health issues, etc.
As I stated, the biological father can pursue a paternity action, if he wishes. You say he doesn't presently wish to do so. He could change his mind.
He knows about his paternity, so the longer he waits, the less likely it is that a court will grant relief.
