Re: SC birth certificate
The father can acknowledge his paternity of the child if he chooses / desires to do so. A DNA test is not mandatory, but it is generally advisable to protect himself in case the child is NOT his biological child.
If you need more information, you can visit my family law blog (www.SCFamilyLaw.com) or our website (www.StevensFirm.com). I wish you the best of luck.
