Legal Question in Family Law in New Jersey

Child support

My fiance was notified by a woman he dated a little over a year ago that contacted me when she was 4 1/2 months pregnant to tell me so. She stated she wanted nothing from me but always wanted a child. She is 37 and stated when we were together that she couldn't have children and wanted to adopt. She has now notified me (baby is 3 months old) to tell me she wants support. He has a 6 year old son and pays $170 a week for since his mother doesn't work and my fiance lives with me and my two children. I make about 65K a year as does he. My question is this 1. Besides taking a DNA will his child support be $170 for one and an additional $170 for the other or does my fiance's situation be offsetted since I will eventually be a dependant and effect what they call cost of living. I don't know if a attorney is necessary with this matter or if it is about formula and he feels taken advantage of by this woman and worries that we will suffer due to this situation. What is included in the formal to insure we don't end up homeless because an old date deceived him. Thanks in advance.. Losing sleep in Plainsboro, NJ
