My mother thought the man who I've called dad for the last 23 years was indeed my father, but it turns out not. Her ex-finance from over 20 years ago refuses to believe that he is my father and will not answer my phone calls much less take a DNA test. I live in CA and he lives in FL.. any legal way to make him?

No.
You could whack him over the head and steal a blood sample, but that would be illegal.
When you were a minor, your mom could (maybe) have sued him for child support and forced a DNA test. It is too late now.
If the man you called dad was admirable, keep calling him dad. The 30 seconds it takes for a sperm to swim up that creek pales in comparison with the 18 – 20 years it takes to be an example to a child. If he was a good one, he’s your dad, even if you don’t look alike.
Alonzo Q. Scumbucket in Florida does not sound like a real dad to me; nor much of a man. Real men do not run away from unpleasant truths. They don’t run away from pleasant ones, either. If you get a multi-million dollar contract in major league sports, I’d bet he’d be willing to take that test. If that happens, you can turn your back on him and say "I have a dad, thanks." Shaquile O’Neal did that, as I recall.
Unfortunately, there is no legal way to force him to take the test. You might be able to acquire something like a hairbrush containing his DNA, but again it is illegal. However it might satisfy you. I do wonder why it is so important since he wants nothing to do with you. Those who love you and want to be a part of your life should have the passion you seem to feel for the "facts" of your birth.
There is no legal obligation right now that forces your Potential father to take a DNA test. You could try getting a court order but it will be a waste of money and time since there is no way you will convince the judge that a DNA test is really neccessary. You could try to sue for overdue Alemony money and hope that in order to deny these charges the father will take a DNA test.
Contact a lawyer and see what can be done.
p.s. contact the person (father) first and try to settle without a lawsuit first.
Since you are a female, the only DNA you share with your father is Autosomal. I don’t think there is any way you can make him take a DNA tests. If you were still a minor your mother might have been able to do so in order to get child support.
Alright, there is no legal way to force him to do it, but you can ask him to and he can decide.Yeah and you can take the DNA test.
Just ask your mother. If there was no other man then he is your father. Why bother to get a DNA test if he is the only alternative? If there were other men chances are he’s not your father in any case. Why bother? Just feel lucky you had a man to call dad.
does he have any other children. maybe you can talk to them about seeing if you are related. but there is nothing you can legally do now that you are 23.
i think talking to your mother might be your best bet. talk about any other possibilities. if there isn’t then he is your dad. sorry but some dads just don’t want to be in the picture. and nothing you say is going to make him chang his mind.
personally i would get his address and write him. tell him all about yourself and express how you just want some info. like medical history. include a picture and tell him you will be wait ting for his answer. i am sure things didn’t go well over the phone and maybe he has calmed down now.
Everyone is right. There is no legal way to make him take a DNA test. I have gone through a similar situation. When I was a baby, my biological father refused to believe that I was he daughter. He wouldn’t take my mom’s calls, he wouldn’t come to see me. 26 years go by, and now he is finally ready to accept the fact that I am his daughter. I am so sorry that you are going through this, but the best thing I can tell you is to pray about it (if you believe in that sort of thing) and maybe one day he’ll have a change of heart. Don’t lose faith.
