Legal paternity testing.
A legal test is the same laboratory analysis as a personal one. What differs is everything around it — who was present, whose identity was checked, and an unbroken record of where the specimen went.
What makes a test legal.
Verified against government photo ID
Every adult is checked against government photo identification and the details recorded. For a child we need a birth certificate or immunisation record and ID for the adult presenting them.
Witnessed and sealed in front of you
The specimen is sealed in the participant’s presence, and the seal is what evidences that nothing was interfered with in transit.
A custody chain with no gaps
Every hand the specimen passes through is documented, from the collection to the accredited laboratory.
Who asks for one.
If anyone other than you will rely on the result, this is the test you need.
Family court and child support
Paternity actions, custody and support matters, and orders that name testing.
Birth records and inheritance
Adding or amending a father on a birth record, and estate and probate questions.
Benefit and agency claims
Where an agency needs the relationship evidenced rather than stated.
What we do not promise.
Admissibility is the court’s decision
We document the collection to the standard a court looks for. Whether a result is admitted, and what weight it carries, is for the court or the receiving agency — no collection company can promise that outcome.
The laboratory’s result is the laboratory’s
We collect, verify and document. An accredited partner laboratory performs the analysis and issues the report under its own accreditation.
