Legal Question in Family Law in Georgia

Re: Now she wants to take a paternity test?

Usually, the moving party pays for such tests, in this case, the mother. I'm not sure I understand the second part of your question. If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.

Re: Now she wants to take a paternity test?

I don't think there is a hard and fast rule on who pays. In most cases, the wife, who has to establish paternity, pays for it, to be reimbursed by the husband if he's the father. However, your husband should get a court order to this effect. He should contact a local attorney, since so much is at stake.
