Question

What is the best way to go about getting a court ordered paternity test? The father lives in Louisiana and the child lives in Chicago.



Answer

A petition to establish paternity will have to be pursued. It is sometimes done through child support suits or enforcement cases.



Answer

Since you put a Louisiana zip code at the end of your question, may I assume you are the alleged father's girlfriend? Why would you want to know that unless the father plans to visit the child? If I am wrong, then the paternity suit should be brought in the jurisdiction where the alleged father lives.
