Is the mother denying that you are the father? You mentioned results- what are you referring to and from whom?
If the baby is your son and the mother disputes custody or visitation or both, then you may need to file a custody matter to establish your rights. This can be accomplished through the professional assistance of an experienced family law attorney. If you are interested in consulting with, and hiring, an attorney that can do just that, contact our office at (888)790-5053.
Just to be certain on the best way to proceed , you should be filing and serving a paternity petition along with a request for order for custody visitation and support once you are certain that the child is biologically yours. Since you are awaiting blood test results, you should know soon on if you should proceed with this legal action.
