A decade of precision: Providing accurate results in DNA and drug testing since 2013.

Establishing paternity

A legal paternity test is a conclusive, legally binding test that uses DNA to determine if a man is the biological father of a child. A well documented Chain-of-Custody is required on all legal paternity tests. Our clinician is required to accurately document I.D verification of all tested parties, utilizing government issued identification. All collected specimens will be collected, secured and sealed using tamper-proof specimen materials in the presence of the tested parties. 

Legal tests are useful for:

  • Child support
  • Custody
  • Inheritance
  • Birth Certificate
