Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

I have a 1 year old daughter with a woman that is legally married. I was out of state when she was born and she has his last name instead of mine. She has threatened to take my daughter from me and since her husband is listed as the father, I don't know what legal rights I have. I love my little girl dearly and need some help!! What options do I have in court to get my parental rights?

In Florida it is presumed that a child born within a intact marriage is a child of the marriage. This is a rebut table presumption. You can file an paternity suit and request a DNA test. I suggest you contact legal counsel and discuss your rights.
