Rancho Cucamonga, California, Paternity Lawyer
Our law firm has been advising and representing men and women regarding California paternity law for more than 15 years. We are a local firm that understands the local system and how judges and family law officials are likely to interpret the law as it applies to your case. Attorney Frank Prainito can help you resolve paternity matters, including child custody and child support obligations and fathers' rights.
Whatever your paternity legal issues may be, contact us for a consultation at our law office in Rancho Cucamonga.
Ways we can help resolve paternity matters:
- Generally, parents voluntarily sign a form that acknowledges paternity before leaving the hospital with their newborn baby. If you did not sign the form at the hospital, and are now willing and ready to sign, we can help you take care of everything.
- When there is doubt about the paternity of a child, a genetic test is available that establishes paternity to a high degree of accuracy. The courts may order the test to be administered on individuals named in a paternity suit. If the suspected father of your child is unwilling to voluntarily submit to a genetic paternity test, we can file the necessary claim to have the test ordered.
- Paternity may also be established by default if you failed to respond to a test order. We can help defend you against a declaration of paternity by default.
- If you are on public assistance, you may be ordered to participate in a paternity test. We can represent you during the administrative and court hearing process.
- We can advise and represent you throughout the process of establishing paternity by publication.

Prainito, A Professional Corporation in San Bernardino County, California, is ready and able to help you with all of your paternity and family law needs.
