Full question:
I live in Portland OR and will be having a baby in November. I want to find out if there is a way that I can make the father sign the birth certificate of our child. We are not married and he is the only possible father. He had stated in an earlier conversation that he will not be there for the delivery, I have very little of his information and he is no longer answering the phone for me to contact him. I also would like to know my rights for getting child support.

Answer:
You would be the one to sign and I believe you can list the Father if you know the Father. You can file a paternity action to address the issue of paternity and support.
