A: You should consult an experienced Family Law Attorney, in your area, for help with this problem. He can file a paternity action to get visitation, and put you on the birth certificate. You can also have a DNA test to make sure you're the father. You will be ordered ti pay child support.
A: If you want to establish rights to the child you will need to file a paternity case in the county where the child lives. There are time limitations involved so you must act quickly.
