Visitation rights in Wisconsin for fathers Can DNA test be done after signing birth certificate?
DNA testing can be done before or after a birth certificate is signed if there is any question about who the father of a child is or if visitation rights are being contested.
If the father is on the birth certificate what rights does he have?
Two come to mind: the right to petition for visitation; and the right to ask the court to determine his child support obligation.
Can a father have his name added to a child's birth certificate if the mother agrees?
A child's biological father can have his name added to a child's birth certificate regardless of whether or not the mother agrees to it. If the biological father voluntarily relinquishes his parental rights and the child is legally adopted by another man, his name can be added to the birth certificate in place of the biological father.
The fathers name is not on the birth certificate and he has not paid child support for 16 years. Does he have any right to the child?
If he can prove that he is the biological father of the child, he can seek custody or visitation rights, regardless of whether or not he is on the birth certificate or paying child support. In fact, if he is the biological father he can legally have his name added to the birth certificate. However, if he has not been around for 16 years, it is unlikely that a judge will grant anything more than visitation rights, and the child is old enough to have a say in whether or not they want visits from their father.
In the state of South Carolina is there any way for a non-biological father get any visitation rights if he signed the birth certificate and the child has his lat name?
The child's last name isn't relevant. However, once you signed the birth certificate, you became the child's father until/unless a court rules otherwise and, yes, you could get visitation.
When a child is incarcerated does the maternal grandmother have more rights to the children than the paternal grandfather if the father is not on the birth certificate?
You don't say which of the parents that are incarcerated but their rights to the child comes first. If the father is not in the birth certificate and he has not established paternity to the court so he can petition for visitation or custody and also pay child support, there is nothing that legally says he is the father. Then the maternal grandmother would have a better chance. If the father is not in the birth certificate but he has established paternity to the court so he can petition for visitation or custody and also pay child support, the chance should be equal.
Can a father who has no contact since birth pays no support and not on birth certificate he is abusive has been arrested 28 times for domestic violence and drugs get rights to visit their children?
In a situation such as this, the custodial parent should oppose visitation or, if that fails, ask for supervised visitation.
What rights does a father have if he is not on the child's birth certificate and nor does he live in the US?
The birth certificate is not something that gives him parental rights, he have to go to court for that and prove it by DNA test. A birth certificate does not require DNA so it does not hold up in court. So yes, if he has gone to court he has rights.
What if father isn't listed on birth certificate but mother wants child support but no visitation rights?
Once paternity is established, the non-custodial parent has the right to request visitation, just as the custodial parent has the right to request support.
Can the biological father get any custody rights if he did not sign the birth certificate and the mother of the child was married but is divorced now and her ex husband signed the birth certificate?
Yes, but he will have to file a petition for visitation. He may also have to go through paternity testing to verify.

How does a biological father sign over his rights to a child if he is not on the birth certificate or has DNA test proving to be the father?
He has the right to petition the courts for a determination of paternity and, if he is the father, the right to pay child support and petition for visitation.
