70.0. ""PATERNITY"??" by JUPITR::LCLARK () Wed May 18 1994 20:40

    
    
    
    MODERATORS - PLEASE PLACE IN THE APPROPRIATE PLACE.  I HAVE PUT A NOTE
    IN NON_CUSTODIAL NOTEFILE.  ALSO DID A DIR/TITLE=.
    
    I am looking for information around establishing paternity, i.e.; 
    court order, cost, test involved, who pays what, etc.  I live in
    Massachusetts.  You may write me off-line.   
    
    Thanks to all responses in advance.

    Call them for information and costs.
    
    From my family's experience you MUST have a third party of either
    an attorney or a doctor who will make the arrangements, and interpret
    the results.  We did NOT want any attorney's OR welfare personnel 
    involved, so we were able to find a doctor to handle this.  This part
    was difficult though because our HMO refused involvement at all.
    Through a personal contact in the medical field, we did find someone
    willing to handle it, and it just happened that it was also the
    doctor that delivered the child.  The cost was about $560, and was
    shared through mutual agreement between the man and the woman.
    
    It takes about 6 weeks to get the results.
    
    Good Luck with the results, and I hope for all parties involved,
    especially the child, that the results are those that are hoped for.
