In Florida, if you want to assert your rights you would need to file a petition for paternity. In Florida if you take no action the mother will have full legal custody and control of the child. Speak with a local family lawyer for more specific advice.

Some judges might be willing to convert restitution to a lien based on a Motion requesting the judge to do so. In my experience most judges will... Read more »
