Under Nevada law, fathers enjoy the same legal rights as mothers when it comes to their children. These rights include child custody and visitation after the break-up of a marriage or a domestic partnership. Your rights as a father do not depend on being the biological father of a child.

If you want to get the court's help with paternity, custody, visitation, child support, and DNA test matters, you can file a child custody/paternity case. There are certain forms you must fill out and file with the court to open a case.

In California, an Advance Directive is made of up two parts, (1) Appointment of an Agent for Healthcare and (2) Individual Health Care Instructions. A person may choose to complete either one or both of these parts. Either part is legally binding by itself.

1. You have the right to make decisions concerning your medical care. 2. You have the right to accept or refuse medical or surgical treatment, including the right to formulate advance directives (declarations and/or durable powers of attorney for health care decisions).

Advance directives are legal documents that provide instructions for medical care and only go into effect if you cannot communicate your own wishes. The two most common advance directives for health care are the living will and the durable power of attorney for health care.

Genetic Testing. Genetic testing is used to determine biological parentage by comparing the DNA markers of the mother, alleged father, and child. We no longer conduct blood testing; instead we collect the DNA necessary for genetic testing by using the Buccal Swab method, which is painless.
