| What does the federal law say about the birth expenses? I am well aware of the fact that the biological father has to pay for the medical and birth expenses. A woman who has delivered a still born child wants to have a paternity test done on the baby delivered at the 27th week of gestation. She wants to find what the federal law states regarding the payment of the expenses if the baby is stillborn or if it’s a miscarriage. the woman is from the state of WI and here the local attorney says that since there is no child, there is no point in talking of child support payments and therefore he wouldn’t have to pay. |
Anonymous CommenterIn most cases the paternity and child support issues are dealt with according to the state laws. We would suggest you to contact the local attorney in your area who specializes in paternity issues and child support cases. He is the right person from whom you might get the help and advice you need since the laws related to such issues vary from one state to the other. You will have to locate a lawyer that specializes in paternity issues for the State of Wisconsin in order to obtain legal advice on this issue.
