Looking for Help in a Paternity Dispute?

Paternity cases involve determining parenting time, decision-making, and child support for parents who were never married. Paternity presumptions can be inaccurate and can mean that some fathers are unable to see their child or that some fathers are not held responsible for their child's care. In these cases, proving paternity is the best remedy. At Fay, Farrow & Associates, P.C., we help fathers exercise their rights and mothers provide for their children's needs by representing clients in paternity cases.

Paternity issues can be complex and emotionally draining. Fay, Farrow & Associates, P.C. provides a helpful environment where you can access experienced lawyers. Our firm offers candid and reliable legal counsel for clients in Naperville and in communities throughout the surrounding areas.

How Establishing Paternity Benefits Your Child

Illinois law is relatively straightforward about paternity. Unless proven otherwise, the law assumes that a married woman's husband is the father of her child if they are married at either time of conception or during birth. By establishing paternity in cases where this presumption is inaccurate, your child benefits from clarified legal rights to:

• Child support and visitation with the father
• Access to Social Security benefits if the father is disabled or passes away
• Simplified inheritance proceedings
• Possible eligibility for veteran's benefits, health insurance, or life insurance
• Access to family medical history
