Parental Rights

Wisconsin Divorce Law: Can my Child’s Father Voluntarily Terminate his Parental Rights and Avoid Child Support?

Stephanie Thompson, Estate Planning Attorney of Krueger Hernandez & Thompson SC · Feb 4, 2014 ·

In most cases, no.  Even if the father does not spend time with the child, he still has an obligation to pay child support.  The State of Wisconsin’s policy is to avoid terminating parental rights due to an increased likelihood that the mother and child would need public assistance (food stamps, medical, housing, or daycare […]

Wisconsin Paternity Law: Do I Have to Wait Until my Child is Born to Establish Paternity?

Stephanie Thompson, Estate Planning Attorney of Krueger Hernandez & Thompson SC · Nov 12, 2013 ·

WISCONSIN DIVORCE AND FAMILY LAW: WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO ESTABLISH MY PARENTAL RIGHTS IMMEDIATELY?

Stephanie Thompson, Estate Planning Attorney of Krueger Hernandez & Thompson SC · Jan 22, 2013 ·

A widely-accepted concept of child development known as attachment theory states that a child’s bond with a parent begins from the first moments of life.   A child’s ability to develop properly and form positive attachments with parents and others is formed in the first few years of life.  If the child does not form quality […]
