Paternity

Enforcing a Father's Rights and Responsibilities

When a child is born outside of a marriage, the rights and responsibilities of a father are not always automatically recognized by law. In many cases, paternity needs to be established as the first step on the road to obtaining the responsibility of child support, as well as child custody or child visitation rights.

As your attorney, I will use my 23 years of family law experience to pursue your goals. I will stand by your side and work hard to do what is right for you.

Ready to Take on High-Profile and Complex Cases

My career has allowed me to take on a wide range of extremely challenging and high-profile cases. I was one of the lawyers involved in the Broward County paternity case of Anna Nicole Smith. During this case, I gracefully and effectively navigated through the maze of media attention and unique details. This is the type of experience I will bring to your case.

Establishment and Disestablishment of Paternity

Many people seek to establish paternity to help gain the rights and responsibilities of parenthood. Still, others have found themselves in the unique position of having those rights and responsibilities, only to learn that they are not truly the parent of the child. These people seek to disestablish paternity.

In each case, the same methods are involved. DNA testing is often a focal point of these situations. I know how to move through the process effectively and efficiently. I am here to get you through this.

I have been granted the title of board-certified family law specialist by the Florida Bar Board of Legal Specialization and Education. This is a unique title that is only given to a select few attorneys. It is given only to those who meet rigorous standards of experience, dedication and knowledge.
