We offer both legal and non-legal testing options with free consultations to help you choose the right test for your needs. We collect your samples and partner with an AABB-accredited laboratory for expert analysis, ensuring the highest quality standards throughout the process.

We are committed to providing affordable and accessible DNA testing with compassionate support. We understand this can be a sensitive process and strive to make it as easy as possible for all involved. We offer flexible testing options when the alleged father is unavailable and partner with a highly reputable AABB-accredited lab to ensure the highest quality standards.

Paternity refers to the legal determination of a child's biological father. Establishing paternity creates a legal relationship between a father and child, which comes with both rights and responsibilities. Paternity tests use DNA analysis to accurately identify the biological father of a child.

We offer two main types of paternity tests: legal and non-legal. Legal tests adhere to strict chain-of-custody procedures and are admissible in court for matters such as child support or custody. Non-legal tests, also known as "peace of mind," tests, are for personal knowledge and do not require the same legal protocols.

The key difference lies in the chain-of-custody procedures. Legal tests follow a strict protocol to ensure the results are admissible as evidence in court. Non-legal tests are for informational purposes only and do not follow the same stringent requirements.

The cost of paternity testing varies depending on the type of test (legal vs. non-legal) and the specific circumstances of your case. We offer free consultations to discuss your needs and provide a personalized quote.

In most cases, paternity test results are available within 5 to 7 business days.

We offer alternative testing options if the alleged father is deceased or unavailable. We can test other relatives, such as the alleged father's parents, siblings, or other children, to help determine paternity.

Even if the deceased father is not in a morgue, we may still be able to perform testing using alternative samples. Contact us to discuss your specific situation, and we'll explore the available options.

Yes, we offer Non-Invasive Prenatal Paternity (NIPP) testing. This advanced DNA test analyzes the baby's DNA circulating in the mother's bloodstream during pregnancy, allowing for safe and accurate paternity determination before birth. This method is a much safer alternative to older, invasive procedures like amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling (CVS), which carry potential risks to the pregnancy.

NIPP testing involves a simple blood draw from the mother and a cheek swab from the alleged father. It's a non-invasive procedure that poses no risk to the mother or the developing baby.

NIPP testing can typically be performed as early as 7 weeks into the pregnancy.

NIPP testing offers several advantages, including: Early Paternity Determination: Establish paternity early in the pregnancy. Non-Invasive: Safe for both mother and baby, unlike amniocentesis and CVS. Accurate: Provides highly accurate results. Peace of Mind: Reduces uncertainty and allows for early planning.

NIPP testing costs vary. We encourage you to contact us for a free consultation to discuss your needs and receive a personalized quote.

In most cases, health insurance plans do not cover the cost of Non-Invasive Prenatal Paternity (NIPP) testing. Insurance providers generally categorize these tests as elective procedures not directly related to diagnosing or treating a medical condition. NIPP tests are primarily sought for personal knowledge or legal reasons, which typically fall outside the scope of standard health insurance coverage. However, it's always advisable to check with your specific insurance provider to confirm their coverage policies, as some plans may have exceptions or offer partial reimbursement.

DNA is typically collected through a simple and painless cheek swab. For legal tests, collection is performed by a trained professional following chain-of-custody procedure to maintain the integrity of the samples.

We partner with a leading AABB-accredited laboratory to process and analyze all DNA samples. This ensures the highest levels of accuracy, reliability, and adherence to chain-of-custody procedures for legal cases.

AABB accreditation is a recognized symbol of quality in the testing industry. It means that the laboratory meets the highest standards for accuracy, reliability, and timeliness. This is especially important for legal paternity tests where the results may be used in court.
