Whether you are a Mother pursuing child support or a Father seeking to obtain parental rights, talk to a William “Bill” Lazarchick, a family law attorney, at William N. Lazarchick, Jr., P.A. located in Palm Beach County, Florida. We have represented and continue to represent clients in paternity matters in Palm Beach County and communities along the Florida Treasure Coast as well as the South Florida area.
When a child is born to married parents, the Husband is automatically presumed to be the biological father. When a child is born to unmarried parents, the Mother is the natural guardian and the Father has no legal rights. The Father has no legal rights or responsibilities of a parent until paternity is established through a Court Order.
Mothers often file paternity actions to obtain child support or to ensure that the father follows an appropriate time-sharing schedule. Fathers often file paternity suits because the Mother is denying visitation or they would like to solidify their relationship with their child.
William “Bill” Lazarchick, Jr., Esq. represent both Mothers and Fathers in establishing paternity and working through the rights and responsibilities that go along with it. We will assist in creating a time-sharing schedule that is in the best interests of the child while also allowing both parents to build a strong relationship with their child. Additionally, we can help you calculate child support and enforce child support agreements.
