Legal Question in Family Law in Iowa
Paternity test results
I married a man 6 years ago and I ws pregnant..neither one of us (or the other guy) knowing for sure if the child was his or not. When my son was born a few months later, my husband's name was put on the birth certificate and given his last name. A few months ago I finally decided to get a paternity test done ( no matter what the consequences would be) and the results said that my husband is not my son's father...who has the legal rights, his biological father or my husband? Thanks a bunch.

Re: Paternity test results
As a practical matter your present husband established paternity when his name was placed on the birth certificate. As he has been the father for six years, it is unlikely that anything could upset that, although people can try.
