Questions About Paternity or Child Support? Call 888-339-4814
Contact Denver family law attorney Jennifer Rivera to learn about your options as a single father involved with a paternity case, a past-due child support problem, or a motion for allocation of parental rights. She represents single fathers throughout the state as well as active-duty military personnel anywhere in the world with concerns about parent-child relationships in Colorado.
In the age of DNA testing, proving whether a man is the father of a particular child is usually the simplest part of a paternity case. What can get complicated is the determination of a monthly child support amount or the collection of past-due support for the period prior to the paternity action. Our law firm can give you a good idea of your options and help you find a practical solution, even if you're alleged to owe thousands in back support.
Some fathers start their own paternity actions, especially in cases where they want to protect their relationship with their children and secure an ongoing right of legal custody or even primary physical custody. If paternity has already been established but no custody rights have been recognized by a court, we can help you move for an allocation of parental responsibility and parenting time.
We also advise single fathers in a wide range of family situations:
- Nonbiological fathers' rights
- Gay fathers' rights
- Stepparent or gay parent adoption
- Paternity, child support and parenting time problems for single fathers in military service
Jennifer Rivera has a statewide reputation for her advocacy on behalf of fathers who need a lawyer's help to protect their rights as parents. Contact her office in Denver to learn how you can benefit from her experience and commitment to your interests.
