Family Law?


family law
Gionnis M asked:


My sons father and myself are no longer together and haven’t been since the middle of my pregnancy. I have found many disturbing things which have made me very uneasy with my son leaving anywhere with him. I explained these things to him and told him he could come here or we could meet so he can see him but I was uncomfortable with the baby leaving with him. He had a problem with it at first and seen the baby twice back when he was a month old. He has not contacted me in 5 months and now I guess he got married because his wife sent me an e-mail stating that he’s been trying to get ahold of me but can’t and how he should be in the baby’s life. I therefore sent her back a message stating that nothing has changed for him to not be able to get ahold of me..same house ,same work same number. He’s not stated on my sons birth certificate as the father. I was curious to know what I might be expecting from all this if anyone has had experience with type of situation? Thank you
he has on his public record a restraining order placed against him by some female and a domestic dispute filed against him by the woman he is currently married to…also another support order on him when he claimed he had no other kids and still claimed that after I confronted him with this information

    Can you prove the unsavory things about your sons dad? If not and he goes to court he will most likely be granted visitation rights. What country are you in? This is kust how things happen in Ireland!

    Well im going through something similar, and even though hes not on the birth certificate, if he requests DNA and he is the father. He has 50% right to your son. And the court will determine where and when he can see him. Good luck!

    My daughter is turning 10 now & I had a similar situation. Your best bet would be to forget about him. My ex is on my daughters birth certificate but he has given up on seeing her as he cannot hold a job or pay child support. If he really is wanting to see his child I would suggest going through a court. They have counseling, fatherhood classes & you can request supervised visits & occasional drug test (if necessary). If he is willing to go through all of that chances are he really has that childs best interest in mind
    Good luck.

    First of all paternity has to be established. He will have to take a DNA test (IM in IL and they do the mouth swab test). Once paternity is established they will want to set up child support and he can request visitation. Thats when you bring up his “disturbing behavior or past” and request a social worker supervisor and or drug testing. (Which you also have to pass) That way the social worker can watch him interact with the child. Good luck to you
