Test Details

When is Paternity Testing Necessary?

Often, a judge may order DNA testing as part of a court-ordered legal proceeding in order to establish parentage or determine if an individual is entitled to certain benefits. Even if DNA testing has not been requested by the court, having legally sound DNA results from an AABB accredited lab can prove beneficial in a wide range of legal matters.

The DNA Testing Process

For postnatal paternity testing, our team explains the test and collects the required DNA samples, commonly with cheek swabs. Samples are sent to our laboratory partners, including Access Labs, for analysis. We confirm the reporting process before collection. Standard postnatal results are available within 48 hours of collection; Friday collections may take longer. Prenatal paternity testing follows a separate process and timeline.
