Loudoun County Paternity Rights Attorneys
It seems that as long as there have been disputes over child custody, there has been a misconception among fathers that the mother always wins. In truth, Virginia law has a statutory rejection to what has been referred to as the "tender years" doctrine, which refers to a presumption in favor of one parent over the other based on gender.
For more than three decades, the lawyers at the Nova Family Law Group have provided skillful representation to clients in even the most strenuously contested custody disputes. We have won many cases on behalf of fathers, successfully securing their place in the children's lives after the divorce.
Our Fairfax father's rights attorneys take the time to fully understand your custody goals. Whether you wish to seek full custody or simply want to ensure that you are able to continue having a meaningful relationship with your children in the future, we will present the most compelling possible argument to support your position.
The Virginia Putative Father Registry
The Virginia Putative Father Registry is intended to help protect the rights of men who believe that they have fathered a child, but who have not yet been recognized as such. By registering, you will be notified if actions seeking to terminate your parental rights or actions involving the adoption of your child are filed with the court. The failure of a father to register can sometimes be seen by the court as a waiver of his parental rights.
If you receive notice that there is an action underway that could compromise your parental rights, our attorneys are prepared to provide the strong and decisive representation you need to protect them. We will help you through the legal process and take the appropriate action to help you reclaim your rights as a father.
