If you had a baby while you were unmarried, there are numerous legal reasons for pursuing a paternity action against the other party. For instance:

• Upon establishing your child's paternity, you can pursue child support payments
• In the event your child's other parent dies, your child can probably receive Social Security benefits if paternity has first been established

With minimal legal costs, you can support yours and your child's right to deserved and often-needed financial support, as well as the stability and peace of mind that can come with legally identifying your child's father.

If you sued in a paternity action, you have certain rights before a paternity judgment is entered against you. For instance, you have the right to genetic testing and to a trial on the issue of paternity.
