Nick needs a lawyer

[kha]

I hope Nick gets a lawyer soon for this Adam paternity stuff. Nick has a strong case what with Adam having done something shady with Christian's birth certificate (can't remember exactly what). Plus, didn't Adam leave Nick a letter asking him to be the child's father? With these points, plus what's in the child's best interest, a judge should rule in Nick's favor. Of course, things in soapland don't always go as they should.

Nick is so arrogant he don't think he need a lawyer. He think he can just sneer at him and he will go away. Oh Nick, have you met Adam Newman.

The real father's rights always are taken ahead of a custodial parent or whatever Nick is. Uncle. Who knows what really
happened with the paternity test. I think Nick will hire a lawyer soon. Especially now that Phyllis is looking to hack into
Dark Horse. Adam wants to find dirt on Nick or something to help him in his case for Christian.

While Adam is distracting him about taking his son away, Nick is too busy not looking after his interest, DH will be taken, not stolen right under his he-man nose. Adam is not going to do anything that will get him arrested, the way Nick got capital from those investors is how Adam is going to get DH, the sneaking little devil is going to use the money Victoria gave him to buy those investors out. Nick will not know what hit him!

Nick does need a shark but I doubt that Adam would be given custody if he pursued it (and I notice he's making insane demands but hasn't taken legal step 1). He changed the paternity test to specify Nick as the father. He has been previously fine with Nick raising Christian as his son. It would hardly be in Christian's best interests to be ripped out of his family at this age and traumatized to satisfy the selfish whim of a sperm donor who didn't just abandon him, but actively worked to confirm another man's paternity and that man has stepped up and is Christian's real father in the best sense.

Adam looks like an abusive dick who doesn't give one flying fig about Christian if he pursues this.

Nick should’ve consulted with a lawyer the day he heard Adam was alive. I know in soap land things move differently than in real life but Nick can not win this without help.

I don't get why, on soaps, they don't go to a lawyer when things happen especially someone like Nick who has money. I guess there's more drama.

That kid has not stable home anyway. He went from being taken from his mother to Sharon and Dylan then to Nick and then to Victor and back to Nick. He is to young and have been in to many homes to feel secure at this point.

[not so young]

Do not forget all the mommys he has had,thanks to Nick.'s bed hopping

As I recall, Nick wasn't too concerned with the child having a stable home when he took him from Sharon and Dylan. He was only interested in what HE wanted. Hmmm. Paybacks are hell!

[Op3]

I totally agree with all post plus Adam told him to keep both of his kid's away from Victor ... plus he really did that because Victor set this guy up for murder if that didn't happen he probably would have gotten Christian also....

[CloverLeaf]

He should have sought legal advice the second Adam even mentioned Christian, but once again, he will do nothing until the 11th hour when he'll tell Michael (or whoever) he better win or the King will lop off his head!

[soapfiction]

Nick is too cocky and he just assumes he'll win.
