Legal Question in Family Law in Florida
If a married woman steps out of her marriage, and becomes pregnant as a result of the affair, can the husband (not the father) be held in any way responsible / liable for this child's well-being ?
Thanks,
Joe Vinson

A child born within a intact marriage is presumed to be the child of the parties involved. In order to rebut this presumption you would have to have a DNA test performed to prove you were not the father.

And you will need to do it ASAP. Otherwise the presumption is that this is your child.
