My nephews girlfriend is about to leave him and have a child together.
What are his rights as the dad ?
She wants to move back with her parents because she misses them.

Sounds like she is looking to set him up for child support payments. Nothing like a free ride for 18 years.

depending on your state law... but he has every right to file for custody of the child. If custody is already established he has the right to file a motion in the court and ask the courts to step in and modify the terms of the current custody order. The best thing to do is call an attorney in Texas as each state has different laws regarding custody.

Your son needs to get a family lawyer. The feds give money to free legal aid groups in every state and one thing they can help with is family matters. My suggestion as an esquire would be for him to get SHARED custody, that way he is not stuck paying child support and having the kids EVERY weekend. Right now as it stands, if they are not married he owes, and they can always go back to the month the child was born.

rights and responsibilities both
He has the right for continued reasonable visitation as agreed upon by both parties preferably notarised and or entered into court papers but notarised at the least
He also has the responsibility to pay child support which is usually 25 percent of pay
Remember the child is what matters not the parents feelings
of seperation and lack of control

there is not any regulation that forces a father to be there for the start of a infant. the daddy does not might desire to be on the start to be sure that the newborn to be named in spite of you come to a determination to call him/her. If he refuses the DNA attempt, then that's presumed that he recognizes being the daddy and could be issued a infant help order. He aspects up his parental rights after the newborn is born...yet understand that "giving up parental rights" takes on distinctive meanings. in case you're desiring him to pay infant help, then he will consistently preserve some sort of parental rights. the only way for him to get out of infant help is that if he supplies the newborn up for adoption.

they need to go to the tx attorney general and get papers drawn up, then the rights will be spelled out on paper. make sure he does this, other wise whoever has the kid has custody and has the decision making authority

He needs to go to court and arrange a custody agreement.
