Paternity
Establishing Legal Fatherhood.
When unmarried parents have a child, it’s often necessary to legally establish paternity to protect the rights of both the father and the child. Determining the biological father in Oklahoma can happen in two ways:
Genetic Testing – If paternity is disputed, the court may order DNA testing to confirm the biological father.
Voluntary Acknowledgment – Both parents agree on paternity without the need for testing or litigation.
Why Paternity Matters
Once paternity is legally confirmed, the court can address important issues such as:
Child support obligations
Custody and visitation rights
Parental decision-making responsibilities
These rulings help ensure that the child’s best interests are met while protecting each parent’s legal rights.
