How can you get fathers rights?

Answer 1

To Get your Fathers Rights, you have to put in some time and effort. But your kids are worth it, right?

To successfully obtain the Fathers Rights that you are entitled to, you have to know everything there is to know about how to present yourself and your case to the court and/or the custody evaluator.

Neither the Judge, nor the evaluator are interested in clever arguments from your lawyer. They want to know who you are and why they should give you all of the rights that a father deserves.

Dads often believe that if they are a "Good Dad," their rights will be protected. It doesn't work that way.

After 30 years of litigating cases on behalf of Dads, I can assure you that unless you personally have the knowledge about what the court or evaluator is looking for and how to get that information across to them in a manner in which they will be receptive, you may as well save your time and money and not try.

Lawyers don't have the time, nor could you afford the hours it would take for your lawyer to train you in how to properly present yourself and your case.

Read everything you can about how to win custody. There are lots of great books available on the internet. See related links.

Just be certain you read books by lawyers and litigation specialists, not a dad who has seen one case or a psychologist who has never presented a case to a Judge.

Once you have the knowledge about how to Win Your Case, then and only then, file the necessary documents yourself or through a lawyer to assert all of the Fathers Rights that You and your children are entitled to.

Answer and Clarification

To obtain your parental rights you must first establish your paternity.

Generally, if the parents are unmarried the mother has sole custody and control in most states until the father can establish his paternity. Remember, a child's mother can always be identified by medical records. Since the father didn't give birth and he was not legally married at the time of the birth he can establish his paternity through a DNA test. A paternity test can be arranged through the court. Once paternity is established in court, the father can request visitations or custody through the court. If the mother retains physical custody she can request that the court issue a child support order. If the father gets physical custody he can request a child support order.

Answer 2

Any parent risks losing his or her custodial rights over their children if it is proved they have abused or neglected those children, or because of other substantiated indications they are unable to function appropriately as a custodial parent.

As with all other legal applications, allegations against any parent must be proved to the satisfaction of legislation under which that parent has been awarded custodial rights.

To look at specific cases in your area, contact your local justice department or legal aid service.

They will also be able to help you clarify the rights and responsibilities of all parents towards their children, as well as the legal situation with respect to custodial parents.

It is better to speak with professionals in this area than to listen to tales from non-professionals which, because you've no way of knowing the true facts in cases described to you by individuals, can be misleading; sometimes dangerously so.

As a rule of thumb, treat children - and other people with whom you come into contact - with respect. Your children are the important factor here, and if you provide the best environment you possibly can, and be the best parent you can be, there should be no problems.
