The law requires judges to base custody on the needs of the children, and neither parent begins with any greater right to custody than the other. Massachusetts law does not list specific factors to be considered in determining a childs best interests, allowing judges a great deal of discretion in making decisions.
Fam. Code 160.602. However, a person may not be adjudicated to be a childs father unless the court has personal jurisdiction over that person. There is no statute of limitations to bring a suit to determine paternity, meaning the suit can be brought even after the child is an adult.
