We at the law office of Philip J. Schipani, P.A., are able to help you. We will work to clarify your goals and take action to make those goals a reality.

The main thing to remember is that the child is not presumed to be the father's until marriage or until it is established in court. We understand paternity action law and can use our experience to your benefit. The law states that until we can establish your paternity, the mother is the child's primary guardian.

Florida Child Custody Lawyer

There are many laws surrounding custody and the child of marriage classification. If a child is born before the marriage or during a separation, Florida still presumes him or her to be a child of marriage. If there is any question, we must act quickly to disestablish paternity. There is a very specific time frame that we must act in to prevent you from paying child support for a child that is not genetically yours. Once that money is paid, you cannot recover it after a paternity disestablishment finding. Contact an experienced Sarasota paternity attorney and let us help you.
