Found Father After 18 Years! HELP!*
What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Pennsylvania/New Jersey
My father left my mom about 6 months after my birth and hasn't provided anything since, not even a location or perhaps a number to reach him by. Lost for the past 18 years my mother found out information about him. Using this i called him the day before i graduated high school and asked him if he knew my mom and declined, but never the less answered a few questions about him self that proved he was no doubt the man my mom once knew. i would just like to know the following and any advice is welcome PLEASE!
How can i go through the courts and what can i do to have him tested and prove he is my dad?
Could i sue him for not providing for me or giving anything to my mom or possibly something for emotional childhood dreprevation of not having a father through out my life?
im no legal expert but im just trying to conjure some things up that i can get him for since he screwed me AND my brother over who is 17 years of age. doube whammy huh? :\
ALL ADVICE IS WELCOME! PLEASE HELP!

No, you are an adult now, and you cannot compel this man to submit to any testing. Your mother should have done that many years ago.
You cannot sue this man ~ he owes you nothing. If paternity was legally established then if there were orders for support he may owe your mother.
Your mother can certainly establish paternity for your younger brother and then if he is not not over the age of majority she can request child support from the time she has filed going forward.
