Types Of Fatherhood


Establishing fatherhood in Texas is not as straightforward as identifying the child’s biological mother. Below are the four main types of fatherhood recognized by the state.

  • Biological Father

    When the man is related to his child by blood. He still needs to establish paternity in order to retain rights on child custody.

  • Presumed Father

    hen the husband has been married to the mother within the 300 days before delivery and is with the child for at least two years after birth.

  • Alleged Father

    When someone alleges paternity, the case can go to court in order to test the claim and establish his rights & responsibilities to the child.

  • Legal Father

    When the father has either volunteered or the court has deemed that he has undisputed legal paternity.
