It is absolutely legal to file for divorce during a pregnancy, and the law makes clear that all parents in Rochester have a financial obligation to support their children.
You should know that if you file for divorce during your pregnancy, you are likely to face an especially confrontational action, and your spouse will almost certainly demand a paternity test to establish whether they have a biological relationship to the child.
If paternity is established, or your spouse otherwise acknowledges paternity, then they will be obligated to provide child support to your child, starting at birth.
By working with experienced Rochester divorce and paternity attorneys, you can ensure that your child is protected and provided for over the long haul.
