Establishing Paternity In The Best Interests Of Your Children
Establishing paternity not only gives biological fathers grounds for parenting time with and seek custody of their children, it also gives mothers grounds to seek child support payments and children an opportunity to spend time with both parents.

Zealous And Compassionate Guidance From Start To Finish
We understand that in cases of unmarried parents, building a strong parent-child bond may require intervention of the courts to establish parental rights. In Massachusetts, fathers have two options for establishing paternity:
- Signing a paternity acknowledgement form;
- Seeking establishment through the court via paternity testing.
At McEvoy & Stuntz LLP, we have helped numerous families throughout Massachusetts establish paternity for the purposes of gaining access to their children through fair parenting plans, and establishing and enforcing child support orders.
We understand the highly emotional and personal nature of these types of cases, which is why we offer mediation services to help parents come to amicable agreements rather than seeking litigation.
