Oregon

Fathers rights in Oregon are guaranteed by state law. These rights relate to paternity, custody and child support.

Paternity: Oregon fathers rights allow you to seek paternity of a child. If you are determined to be the father, you have legal rights regarding how that child is raised including whether or not it is placed for adoption.

Custody: You have the right to seek custody of your minor children. Custody might mean legal and physical custody of them or the legal right to ongoing, scheduled visitation. When you have any type of custody, you have the right to be involved in major decisions regarding your kids such as their education, religious involvement, participation in sports or other programs, their medical care if needed and much more.

Child Support: Fathers rights in Oregon allow you to seek child support from the mother or to have the level of child support adjusted that you receive or are paying. The court will evaluate the financial circumstances of both parents and make an evaluation.

These are your Oregon fathers rights. If you have questions or would like help securing them, contact an attorney with expertise in helping men obtain their fathers rights in Oregon.
