  2. How How To To Establish Establish Paternity Paternity in in Texas Texas There are a number of ways to establish legal paternity in the state of Texas. First, it’s important to know that paternity may be established in a voluntarily or involuntarily manner. If both parents are in agreement about the identity of the biological father of the child, then paternity can be established voluntarily. This is by far the most common and simplest way to legally verify the father of the child. If the parents agree to sign an official Acknowledgement of Paternity in the hospital immediately following the birth of the child, the form is sent to the state capitol in Austin to be permanently added to their collection of records. This process can also be accomplished in the days after the child is born since the form can be sent by mail. But if the birth certificate has already been sent out by the hospital without the father’s signature on it, the parents will need to pay a fee to alter the official birth certificate.
