Legal Advice about custody and paternity?

I'm 4 months pregnant.





was with a guy long term, we broke up, rebounded with another.





rebound wants nothing to do with baby





long term bf wants us to raise it even if its not his





rebound's parents want to get a court-ordered paternity test when baby is born even though none of us want it.





If i sign for a prenatal paternity test through amniocentesis, I sign for full custody right? Can the rebound's parents demand to see the results? Do I legally have to tell them?





please do not comment on the circumstances, just the questions.Legal Advice about custody and paternity?
The parents have no legal right to anything. If HE requests a paternity test, the court will grant it. His parents have no standing.





However, you should NEVER refuse to have paternity legally established. In the first place, your child may NEED to know his true parentage in later life for medical reasons. In the second, even if your long term b/f takes the child as his own, that has zero legal standing later if he decides to renounce the child. At that point, a paternity test can be used to deny his paternity, thus freeing him from any support. The actual father may be long gone and not available to test, leaving you with no support at all.





If you really want to do it legally, have the correct father listed (either he agrees of a paternity test does it for him), then have the long term adopt the child, making it legally his responsibility. Rebounds parents have no say in the matter.Legal Advice about custody and paternity?
If you have one done and refuse to divulge the results, they will most likely have a court order a paternity test, then you can either offer up the results or go for another test.





A paternity test in no way shape or form grants custody.





That is an entirely different story.
They can sue you for grandparent's visitation rights in most states and then paternity results would be ordered revealed by the court.





You automatically have custody of your child at birth and the father or his parents can sue for visitation or custody. They're pretty much guaranteed visitation rights but as long as they don't prove you unfit they are very unlikely to get custody.
