another guys name is put as the father i want to get that changed. I am good friends with my daughters mother and she agrees that we need to get it changed. is a paternity test all i need to get the name changed ? the reason im not on the birth certificate is because i am 16 and the mom is 19 and we broke up for a short time an she got a new boyfriend and put his name on it because she didnt want to get introuble because im under age! Now this guy is not wanting the name changed he is sayin its his baby even though he really knows its not! what can i do? he took the baby so i want to get my baby back so there for i need a paternity test right ? and what else?

  1. You need to get some legal advice, there are places that are free especially for minors. That is the only way you will know for sure what the laws are in your area. You will have to get a paternity test before any changes can be made, your legal advice people should advise you about this.

    If it is not his baby, he wont be able to just take it, so best bit of advice is to see a legal team sooner rather than later. Look around in your phone book for some numbers which give out free legal advice, they will help you and give you the proper answer for your circumstances and your state


  2. The only sure and legal way is to consult the Rehistrar of Births.Deaths and Marriages in your State.There are very specific guidlines you must follow.Cheers.

  3. all you need to do is go into your family assistance office get the paper work and fill it out both parents have to sign though

    i did this 2 weeks ago not a big deal  

  4. He cant take the baby, especially if its not even his.  He has no right, and yes you have to get a paternity test.  However she might still get in trouble depending on your states laws.

  5. All you need is a lawyer and a paternity test and the other guy will be removed and you added.
