Re: Child support
You have several issues here. First, you certainly have the right to have your name place on the birth certificate which will require a court order. Second, you will need to request visitation, which probably also will require a court order since you live out of state. Regarding the name change, that may be a little more difficult.

Child support
Depending on which county in Michigan your son lives in, we may be able to assist you. You will need a court order for paternity to establish your visitation rights.
