child support (Illegitimate child)

Hi there,
Good day to you. I am a mother seeking legal advise regarding the rights of my first born.

She is now 12 years old and the she is an
illegitimate child.
Initially we were receiving 15,000.00 pesos support from
her father, this was before she was born till she was 3.
years old. Regularly every month the support came in without us asking.

Then the support came in every time we asked especially when the girl started schooling. 10,000.00 pesos
were sent to us whenever we ask..

when she turned 7 was when the support became
5,000.00 whenever we ask for assistance. At this point our
daughter is schooling already.

What prompted me to seek assistance is that last week my
daughter met with her father for financial help,when he handed 4,000.00 to her he scolded her saying that
"you and your mother are leeches and are trying to suck money out of
me"! my daughter came home crying because she tried to defend
her self and me her mom but the more she got scolded. This was when my daughter admitted that every time she meets with
her dad this was the scenario she gets scolded we were bad mouthed by her father.
I really want to fight for my daughter's rights firstly her father has a big name in the realty industry
he owns 2 of the most prestigious buildings in Quezon City.
I know that I may not have documents to prove paternity
because he may deny fatherhood, but I am very much willing to
submit my daughter to a DNA test.
Please get in touch with me thru this email
address: amor_dagalea@yahoo.com

Please I just want what is duly right for my daughter.
I will give you our names and the father's name as soon as I hear from you.
Thank you and more power,

your daughter is 7, and she deals directly with her father to get financial support?

what is your situation now? were you single when she was born? are you now married to someone else?

Good Eve!! I just wanna ask for the same problem... Im just knew here thats why I dont know where and how to ask.. I gave birth last March 1, 2010 and my baby is illigitimate.. I want to ask support for his father because as of now, my salary is not enough to support all his needs, my baby needs medication and operation... i cant contact the father of my baby. He's a seaman. Please help me... Im single when i gave birth,and after until now, i dont have any realtionship

did the father sign the birth certificate?

hi atty,
gud day!what if the father of my child didn't sign the birth certificate? can i ask support from him? tnx!

you can ask for support from him, but if he refuses, you will not have any proof that he is the father. try to get him to issue an affidavit that he is the father or sign the birth certificate.

gelopo, please don't use text spelling.

surely you received some form of notice which is why you went there. what does this notice say?

Hi atty.
I am a single parent of 2, a boy 17, and a girl 13. I never asked for the father's support since they started schooling in a private school. last school year i demanded the father to give me half of my daugthers tuition fee which he resisted instead bargained that he will be the one to pay for the monthly fee. I plan on transferring my child to another school this year, when i went to her school to get her card, i found out that no payment was made starting the month of January of 2011 to March 2011, I would like to ask is it possible to file for a case regarding child support? he signed the BC of our children, but we were never married. please give me an advice.

thanks a lot.

send a demand letter first for support, then i recommend you consider a criminal case of economic abuse under ra 9262 or a civil case for support

Hello Sir,

May anak po ako na illegitimate child 7 yrs old na po sya ngayon, ang tatay nya ay Black american, last year pa po sya di nakikipag usap sa amin para po kaming tinataguan at sinasadyang di kuntakin may habol po ba ang anak ko sa kanya? kasi po sabi nya ala syang trabaho umaasa lang daw sya sa disability nya at sa veterans na pension may posibilidad po ba na masuportahan po ang anak ko? specially po sa schooling ng anak ko nakaperma naman po sya sa birth certificate ng anak ko. sana po matulungan mo po ako sa problema ko maraming salamat po

send a demand letter then file a case of economic abuse under ra 9262

salamat sa advice paano po mag send ng demand sa kanya? sa mismong address nya or sa us embassy? di ko po kasi alam kung anong gagawin ko eh kung saan ako mag uumpisa at kung paano ko sya hahabulin sa responsibilidad nya.. sana po maturuan nyo po ako kung papano ang gagawin ko maraming salamat po
