My husband has a 5 year old "son" who hasn't really been part of his life. There's been some question as to whether he was really his. I know he loves him, but considering his mother makes a lot more money than us, he pays for his other son and we had a new baby, he'd like a paternity test. (Also the "dad" has now found out about him and is trying to get involved) Do we contact the state or a lawyer? Who is responsible for the cost? Any advice would be great, thanks!
We live out of state. He's been paying the court ordered support (for 2 kids). Also, assuming the child isn't his, could he be reimbursed for the last five years?
