Paternity

Austin, Texas Paternity Lawyer

The Law Office of J. Tim Whitten, P.C. is committed to helping parents establish the paternity of their children. I have been practicing primarily family law for most of my 14 years as an attorney and have helped establish the paternity of numerous children. My office is located in Austin, Texas and I handle cases throughout Travis County, Williamson County, Caldwell County, Bastrop County, and Hays County.

As an Austin, Texas paternity lawyer, I have helped parents establish the paternity of their children for a variety of reasons. Generally, parents seeking to establish paternity are not married or are separated at the time of the child's births. Often parents want to establish the paternity of their children to allocate the rights, privileges, powers, and duties between the parents, establish child support, establish custody and/or possession arrangements.

Most people do not realize that placing a parent's name on a birth certificated does not completely establish paternity and does not give the custodial parent the right to child support. As an experienced Austin, Texas paternity lawyer and family law attorney, I can help parents establish paternity through voluntary or court ordered blood tests if necessary, and then continue to help them with child support, child custody, possession, and adoption issues.

If you live the communities of Austin, Georgetown, Round Rock, Bastrop, Lockhart, or San Marcos and need the services of an experienced Austin, Texas paternity lawyer to establish child support, child custody or possession, please contact the Law Office of J. Tim Whitten, P.C.
