Paternity FAQs

Do Unmarried Fathers Have Rights in Arizona?

In Arizona, an unmarried father needs to establish his paternity before he has any rights regarding his children. 

How Does a Father Establish Paternity in Arizona?

There are a couple of different ways that an unwed father can utilize to establish paternity in Arizona. 

These include:

  • Through DNA testing
  • Signing the birth certificate 
  • Signing a “Voluntary Acknowledgment of Paternity” by both parents

Hiring a paternity lawyer to assist with your case is another option. 

What Is Acknowledgement of Paternity?

An acknowledgement of paternity is a legal document that establishes the paternity of a child between two unwed parents. This document must be signed and notarized. (A.R.S. 25-812)
