Paternity

As an unmarried parent or a man who has been told you fathered a child, there may be many reasons for you to seek qualified, balanced legal counsel. At Kevin Qualls Family Law in Orange, a paternity lawyer with decades of experience protecting children's and parents' interests will carefully consider your specific case and help you make the soundest possible decisions.

Caring, Reliable Guidance And Decisive Action For Mothers And Fathers

DNA testing is very accessible and reliable today, and it must be completed to establish the biological father of a child for legal purposes. We will guide you through the steps necessary to establish paternity and advise you of what the results may mean in terms of your rights and obligations. Attorney Kevin L. Qualls is well-prepared to represent you as:

• A mother who wants to formally establish a father's parentage and pursue a just order for California child support

• A parent considering a child custody action in the child's best interests
