my soon to be husband got a divorce a few years back. He is paying child support and we are not sure if the child is his. I know that if we try to get a dna done his ex- will just say no. So how do we go about and get one done threw court without a lawyer or do we need to get one? If so how much is this going to cost us? we live in oklahoma but the court we deal with is in kansas. We want to know if the child is his so we both can see the baby. We love the child either way someone please help us.

Getting a DNA test will not give your husband any more rights to the child than he already has. And getting a DNA test will give you NO rights as you have none in any event.
The fact that he is paying child support requires at first a finding of Paternity. So, as far as the court is concerned, he IS the father legally if he is paying support through either a judicial or administrative court order.
So, IS he paying support through the court or not?

To establish the paternity issue, file a case in court to order a DNA testing of the father and alleged son.

In Britain, DNA tests cannot be forced.
