I need to get a legally binding paternity test in the state of Maryland. Do I go to my doctor? Or a testing center? How much does it cost? How long does it take to get the results back? The more info you can give me the better - thanks!

A simpler way would be to file for child support - doesn't cost anything (if one is low income - otherwise, the filing fee is $25) and the court will order mother, father and child to submit to testing at the local courthouse.

Why would there be a court order for a paternity test in a child support case in NYC?

My brother lived with this girl for close to 8 years, they have a 4 year old daughter, but they broke up recently. As soon as he moved out, he then receives a summons for a paternity test- not child support. Why? I must say that he doesn't remember if he signed the little girls birth certificate, we feel like this might be a sign because the reason of separation was infidelity. He says he has no doubt the little girl is his, why would the court order a paternity test, and should he take it? Please help!
Does he have the opportunity to opt out and just agree to pay cild support, or does the court obligate the paternity test?

If I were your brother, there is no way that I would agree to pay child support without a paternity test. Look at it this way: There is proof that the woman is the mother of the child since the baby was born from her body. What proof is there that your brother is the father? Absolutely none.

And she may not be going for child support right now, but she will be. If she is on any kind of state aid, such as welfare, subsidized housing, TANF, the state is going to go after the biological father for child support. Even if he signed the birth certificate, he is not legally the father according to the Courts since he was not married to the child's mother.

If they had been married, the child would legally be his even if he were not the biological father since all children born during a marriage are considered to be the legal child of the husband.

I think every time a child is born, unless it is known to be the result of artificial insemination or something similar, there should be DNA testing to prove that the "father" is indeed the father. There are a lot of cases of paternity fraud where a woman will claim that the man is the father and he will find out years later that he isn't. And I'm a married woman who knows for a fact that my husband is the biological father of my children.
