In this article we will discuss: What can the mother and father do if they agree he is the biological father?, Is there anything a father can do before the child’s birth to protect his rights?, What can a father do after the child’s birth?, What happens if a mother marries prior to the father’s rights being established?, What if there is a termination of parental rights case against the mother?, and If the father is proven to be the biological father, is it guaranteed he will be granted paternity?
