Colorado Paternity Issues |
Knowing how to establish paternity and Colorado is very
important. You first have to establish if you were married at the time of the
baby’s birth or if the baby was born within 300 days after the end of the
marriage. If either of these cases are true husband is presumed by law to be
the father in Colorado.
What if you are not married? In this case the father can
agree to be the father by signing an affidavit stating that he is the father.
Father can also give consent by being named on the child birth certificate. In
unique cases the court will have to decide and speaking with a local Colorado
paternity lawyer would be very helpful.
