Low-Cost Paralegal Services


Have any doubts whether or not you are the father. Get blood tested now!

We provide both legal advice and set up blood testing for the child, the mother and the father anywhere in the U.S.

Legal advice is just $39.95 per call charged to your credit or bankcard. You will speak to Mr. Radoff an attorney with over 32 years of experience.

Mr. Radoff's office arranges for two types of blood tests. Those you want to use in court and those that are not admissible in court.

What's the difference other than price?

In order for the blood testing results to be admissible as evidence the court requires expert testimony relating to the chain of custody of the blood samples, the method of testing, and an explanation of results established by a state certified laboratory and an expert in the field.

The charges for testing range from $280, for non-court admissible testing, to $450 for court admissible blood test. Naturally, the in court expert testimony by the lab technician is an additional expense. You may charge these fees to your credit or bankcard.

What does an action or suit to establish paternity mean?

A father, a mother, a child or the District Attorneys office may bring an action or petition to establish paternity. Such actions establish weather or not a person is the father of a particular child.


Recent Court Decisions

In January of 2000 the California Court of Appeals introduced new confusion and uncertainty into paternity matters. Under California law if a child is born to a married couple while they are cohabitating and if he is not impotent or sterile, that husband is conclusively presumed to be the father of the child. Under this law, Family Code section 7540, even if you could prove that another man is the father, the court cannot do anything but find that the husband, not the biological father, is the legal "father"

However, in the case of Brian C. v. Ginger K., the court held that the U.S. Constitution prevents the state from applying the above conclusive presumption law when the child has lived with and known no other father but the biological father. Hence, a child can have two fathers under the law as it exists today.

If this is not confusing enough a recent Orange County Superior Court has ruled that a father raising two children on his own for several years found out that they were not his children. The wife finally confessed!

The Court ordered blood testing and found the wife correct, he wasn't the biological father. The Court ordered the man thought to be the father to have no rights or obligations with regard to the children.

There are more confusing case decisions in this area of the law, which is fast evolving.

Have questions; just call Mr. Radoff for immediate answers  818-705-1403 or 800-595-2948.
