What if the father does not want to acknowledge paternity?
The mother should contact an attorney or the Office of the Attorney General. The Office of the Attorney General will open a child support case file for her and she will not have to pay for these services. It is important that the mother complete the application with as much information as she can. Information about the father, such as a Social Security number, place of employment, and/or an address, makes it easier to locate him.
