Paternity. Establishing and Contesting

I handle cases to establish or contest paternity. I arrange DNA testing, deal with civil registry records and proof of family relations.

I help the court reach the factual truth. I explain the procedure clearly. I organise DNA testing, work with the registry office, collect testimony and documents. I draft a claim or defence. I control deadlines and follow through until records are changed.

Review grounds. registry papers, testimony, correspondence
Arrange and supervise DNA testing
Draft a claim or a defence with evidence
Ensure amendments to the registry entry and birth certificate

Confidential and careful work. The goal is simple. a fact based decision that is enforceable.
