Establishing Father’s Rights
One of the easiest ways to establish paternity is by signing a Voluntary Acknowledgment of Paternity form. This form allows you to declare yourself the legal father as soon as the child is born (with the mother’s agreement), both parties swearing under oath.
The acknowledgment can be revoked within 60 days of signing, but only in cases of fraud or coercion. After 60 days, it becomes legally binding and irrevocable.
If you’re not on good terms with the mother, you can petition for a court order to establish paternity. Our legal team can help you begin this process—even during pregnancy. After the child is born, genetic testing will confirm your status, and the court will resolve child support, custody, and other related matters.
The Importance of Protecting Your Relationship
While informal agreements with the child’s mother are possible, they offer no legal protection. A formal paternity establishment ensures your active involvement in your child’s life. Without it, the mother could sever your relationship without repercussions.
By securing your legal rights early on, you:
- Play an active role in your child’s upbringing.
- Ensure your child receives continuous support, including financial backing and inheritance.
- Foster a vital emotional bond, shown to benefit children psychologically.
- Participate in key decisions, weighing in on their education, healthcare, and overall well-being.
Studies confirm that children with strong relationships with both parents thrive emotionally, mentally, and physically—even when living in separate households.

Divorced Father’s Rights
Going through a divorce? The Law Office of Verna Popo, P.A. has helped countless fathers maintain strong relationships with their children post-divorce. Whether your case is amicable or contentious, our attorneys will work tirelessly to protect your rights as a father.
Florida courts emphasize the importance of children maintaining frequent contact with both parents. It’s a misconception that mothers are favored in custody rulings. Current laws aim for equitable time-sharing and parental decision-making, whenever feasible.
If your ex-spouse challenges your rights, we’ll help you prove to the court that your involvement is in your child’s best interests. We’ll ensure you’re granted equal parenting time, addressing custody and legal decision-making responsibilities.
