Paternity/Child Support

Either a mother, a man who believes he is the father, or the State of

Idaho, if the mother or child receives public benefits, can file a paternity case

requesting the man named in the case be declared the legal father of a

child.

In a Paternity Case either the man can agree he is the legal father or

DNA test results may be obtained. Child support will also be decided in a

paternity case. Once paternity has been established, the Court may then

consider custody and parenting time issues.

Whether you are a mother who needs to establish paternity and begin

receiving child support, or a father who has been served with Paternity court

documents against which you need to defend, we can help. Or maybe you’re a parent who needs to modify child support based on an income change? No matter the specific circumstances of your child support case, you need to make sure you have an experienced child support attorney to guide you through the process. A child support dispute could seriously impact you and your child now and for many years in the future.

At DENA MOORE LAW GROUP, a family law attorney with experience

handling child support matters will meet with you to evaluate your case,

explain what you can expect at every stage in the process, and identify your

options going forward.
