Re: establishing paternity
You have to submit a petition to the Family Court for an Order of Filiation. You have to also file a motion for alternate service to allow service on his family.

Re: establishing paternity
There is a special motion that you have to file with the Family Court to have a judge order paternity test done.
You should contact a lawyer if you need help.
