Legal Paternity Testing
Many people have situations that require legal proof of paternity, such as those seeking child support, child custody, or Social Security benefits, or those wishing to immigrate to another country. Home paternity test results cannot be used for these purposes because we cannot directly identify the persons contributing to the DNA samples. Legal paternity testing uses a chain of custody procedure, which requires that tested parties go to a clinic or laboratory for sample collection and appropriate identification by a trained professional.
Solving paternity issues in two steps
The prospect of going through the chain of custody can be unsettling to some patients. Depending on their situation, some may benefit from taking a home paternity test before a legal test. A quiet, confidential test will give them the answers they need to make an informed decision before proceeding with legal testing.
