VerifiedThank you for your question. My goal is to provide you with the best possible answer.
To achieve that goal it may be that I will find that I need to gather further information from you. As well, it's quite possible that you may feel the need to ask me additional questions for further clarification.
But, please understand that as a careful lawyer I will always give you an honest answer even if the answer is sometimes not what you were hoping for.
A lawyer does not have any higher authority or right than anyone else.
A lawyer cannot get confidential information anymore than you can.
If this is a parenting issue, for example, then you may be able to get a court order for this information if it is relevant.
But no lawyer can get this information simply by asking.

If this is a parenting issue, for example, then you may be able to get a court order for this information if it is relevant.
But no lawyer can get this information simply by asking.
If your ex-partner has a child and it is possible the child is yours then you can get an order for paternity testing.
You will not be able to find out if she had an IUD or not. This is not relevant and is confidential. Whether she tricked you or not if the child is yours then all the rights and obligations that flow from having a child will apply whether you were lied to or not.
Child support is the right of the child and the mother's conduct it not relevant.
I hope that helps you understand the law even though it may not be what you were hoping to hear.
