Before she started the process she never let me see my kids

- File a petition for visitation rights.

Why would a child support case be closed
A child support case might be closed in Georgia for several reasons:
- All owed child support has been paid.
- The child is no longer a minor.
- The custodial parent voluntarily closes the case.
- The non-custodial parent's rights are terminated.
Always consult a lawyer for your specific case.
The non-custodial parent's rights are terminated.
In Georgia, a non-custodial parent's rights might be terminated for reasons such as:
- Chronic abuse or neglect.
- Failure to support or maintain contact with the child.
- Parental incapacity due to mental illness or addiction.
Please consult a lawyer for your specific case.
So what do that mean I can’t see my kids
If your rights as a non-custodial parent are terminated in Georgia, it generally means you lose visitation rights. However, this is a complex legal matter. Please consult a family lawyer for advice specific to your case.
But I never signed the birth certificate
In Georgia, even if you didn't sign the birth certificate, you can still be deemed the legal father through a paternity test. You can discuss this with a family law attorney to understand your rights and responsibilities.
I never took at paternity test
If you never took a paternity test, it's essential to establish paternity to secure your rights. In Georgia, you can request a paternity test through the court. It can help establish your legal rights and obligations. Consult a family law attorney for guidance.
