DNA Paternity Testing

Kansas DNA Paternity TestingWhenever there is a dispute over the identity of a child’s father, a DNA test is used to answer the question definitively. These are very precise scientific tests, and there is a lot riding on their outcome. It is important to ensure that the tests are performed correctly and that the results are accurate. At Stange Law Firm, PC, our skilled child custody attorneys represent clients in all aspects of paternity cases. Our reliable and committed lawyers have extensive experience in these matters, and we work diligently to see that your interests are fully protected. We understand the stress and anxiety that frequently come with these situations. You can count on us to be there with you at every step, constantly working for a positive result.

Working to Ensure an Accurate Result in DNA Paternity Testing

Where paternity is in dispute, a DNA lab test is usually ordered. The test involves retrieving a DNA sample from the child, the mother, and the alleged father. The samples are typically collected by swabbing the inside of each person’s mouth. These samples are then sent to an accredited laboratory for analysis. We do everything in our power to ensure that the laboratory performing the tests follows the necessary protocols to maintain the integrity of the DNA samples. If there is any concern over the results or that the samples may have been contaminated at some point during the process, we will not hesitate to request new tests from a different lab. You can read more on this topic in an article titled: The Basics of Establishing Paternity. If you have questions or concerns about DNA Paternity Testing, we have written some articles that might help: DNA paternity testing on the rise, DNA paternity tests a must for unwed fathers establishing rights, and Missouri legal summary on paternity cases.

ABOUT

Full Service Child Custody Representation

Our child custody practice focuses on protecting the wellbeing of children and the rights of parents. We handle issues such as:
Visitation
Often called parenting time, visitation is the amount of time a noncustodial parent spends with his or her child. We can handle a broad spectrum of visitation matters.
Creating a parenting plan
Getting visitation rights means drafting a parenting plan that works. We can help.
Relocation with a child
Courts have continuing jurisdiction over child custody and visitation orders. So, when a parent wants to move, it is usually necessary to get the court's permission first. Failure to do so can put your time with your child in jeopardy.
Enforcement of orders
If a parent fails to follow a child custody order, it may be possible to take him or her to court to enforce the order.
Contempt of court
If you are found to have repeatedly ignored a court order, you may be found in contempt of court.
Modification of orders:
When you need a court order changed, you can work with the experienced attorneys at Stange Law Firm, PC.
Custody Issues for Nonmarried Parents
Next to divorce actions, paternity cases (custody and support cases between unmarried parents) are among the most common cases in family law.
Parental Rights
Parents are often concerns about their parental rights, especially fathers in certain circumstances.
Family Access Motions
If you are being denied access to your children, you may want to consider a family access motion.
Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act
If you have jurisdictional issues involving your custody case, you will want an attorney familiar with the UCCJEA.
Custody Evaluations
If you have a complex custody case where psychological issues or abuse may be in play, you might want to consider a child custody evaluation
Hague Convention
If you are dealing with an international child custody dispute, and perhaps child abduction, knowing about the Hague Convention is often critical.
Third-Party Custody
If you are not the biological parents, in certain cases all may not be lost. You might have a right to third party custody in certain situations.
Fertility and Surrogacy
Fertility and surrogacy is a growing area of the law for those who want children.
Transportation
In some custody cases, parties might live far apart. This can result in difficult child custody cases with transportation at issue.
