Re: paternity
Very possibly. DO NOT believe that if the DNA shows you are not the father, then you are home free. Did you sign a voluntary acknowledgment of paternity? If so, you are locked in, regardless of who the real father is. If you would like I can provide you the IL Supreme Court case from last year that declares that.
If you did not sign it, you are in good shape. Feel free to contact me if you have more questions, I have dealt with several of these cases in the last 6 months.
