Establishing parentage — especially paternity — is a crucial legal step that impacts a child’s right to support, inheritance, identity, and emotional connection. Whether you’re seeking to prove fatherhood or contest a claim, the law in Kenya offers clear procedures through the Children Act, 2022 and relevant court rulings.
Nkatha and Company Advocates supports clients with:
- Filing applications to establish or deny paternity
- Requesting court-ordered DNA tests
- Addressing paternity claims in the context of child support, custody, or inheritance
- Resolving disputes involving alleged fathers or absentee parents
- Advising on legal rights of biological and non-biological parents
Once parentage is legally confirmed, it can open the door to:
Child maintenance and support
Parental responsibility and decision-making rights
Access to medical and educational history
Succession and inheritance rights
We handle these matters with discretion and compassion — recognizing the emotional weight they carry for both parents and children.
At Nkatha Advocates, we are committed to securing the truth, legal clarity, and protection of every child’s best interests.
