Biological Father Rights

Every biological father has some legal rights towards their children. Some unwarranted or unwanted circumstances may lay some restrictions over your rights, but you still have them.

The first scenario is that if you have signed the birth certificate as the legal father, then you have complete rights over your child. No one can change the status of your fatherhood or get restraining orders against you from your child unless you do something severely wrong. Also, if you were a teenage father and were unable to care for the child at that time, but now you are in a position to, you still can have access to your child. Signing the birth certificate gives you complete access.

In case you have not signed the birth certificate, the situation can get slightly problematic. Since you were not declared as a legal parent, you have to make efforts for declaring it. You will need to get a paternity test for proving it. If the child is unavailable for the paternity test, then you will need to get the courts permission for it. As long as your intentions are clear and you are willing to take future responsibility by providing paternal support financially and emotionally, no court will stop you. However, this is a more round about process, and could take time to settle down. Once the paternity is established, you can appeal to the court for access to your child. You should also be prepared to pay child support to the mother of the child.
