Arizona Order of Paternity is a legal document issued by the court that establishes the legal relationship between a mother and a father and their child. The order establishes the legal rights and obligations of the father such as child support and visitation rights. The order also outlines the rights of the child such as inheritance and medical benefits. There are two types of Arizona Order of Paternity: the Voluntary Acknowledgement of Paternity (VAP) and the Judicially Declared Paternity. The VAP is a voluntary process initiated by both parents to establish paternity without a court order. The Judicially Declared Paternity is a court order entered by a judge after a legal determination of paternity has been made.
