Benefits in Determining NJ Paternity
While it is understandable that you may be reluctant to follow through with paternity establishment, your child may benefit significantly from establishing New Jersey paternity. Benefits to determining paternity include:
-
Medical Condition—New Jersey paternity is an important tool to determine what medical conditions a biological father has, so that your child can be fully informed about his or her genetic make-up. Since many medical conditions are hereditary, it is important for you and your child to know if the biological father has specific medical conditions that may impact your child’s future.
-
Medical Insurance—once paternity is established, your child may be eligible to receive medical benefits through the biological father’s plan.
-
Social Security and Benefits—in certain situations, once NJ paternity is established, your child may qualify for Social Security benefits in the event of their father’s disability or death. (This may also apply to veteran’s benefits as well).
-
Life Insurance Policies—a biological father may be required to maintain life insurance on his life to secure child support, and your child could be named as the beneficiary of the policy.
-
Estate Planning and Probate—if a biological father should die without a Last Will and Testament in place, your child may stand to receive a portion of their father’s estate during probate proceedings.
