In the absence of a declaration of parentage by the court, any custody dispute between unwed or same sex parents will favor the biological mother. In order to have enforceable parental rights the other parent must seek parentage to be held equally responsible for the care, custody, education, and support of the child. The lawyers at BRUNELLE | CONKLIN have successfully represented clients in paternity actions for years. If you need to establish paternity for child support or a parenting plan, contact us to schedule a consultation.
