He can certainly file for legitmization. There is no way to guess at an outcome, which will be dependant on detailed facts about the two parents.
If he wants to legitimate the child, he should do so immediately.
Hall County has special hours set out for family law pro se litigants.
The website for general information is http://www.hallcounty.org/judicial/jud_FLIC&GAL;.asp
Your boyfriend should take advantage of the special hour provided by the clerk for pro se matters.
If he believes there will be a custody dispute, he should hire an attorney. The legitimation and custody matter may be resolved within one matter.
