What are some tips for establishing paternity?

Establish Paternity at Birth

If you are unmarried at the time your baby is born, ask to complete voluntary paternity acknowledgment forms at the hospital when you give birth.
If paternity is not established at birth, telephone the support specialist at your county Department of Social Services for free help. (You do not have to be on public assistance to seek help, from the support specialist.)
