Court Admissible Paternity Test
DNA tests are tools to determine the biological relationship between two individuals. Paternity DNA Test is one such DNA test that determines if the alleged father is the child’s biological father. In other words, it underlines a child’s paternity. The participation of a mother is optional for a paternity DNA test. There is no age restriction to perform this test. Even newborns can take this quick and easy DNA test. The inheritance of half genetic material (DNA) from a father to his offspring forms the fundamental principle of this test. Paternity DNA Tests are done for both peace of mind and legally admissible cases. A DNA Paternity Test for Court is done in the presence of the hearing judge or a court-appointed representative. These tests serve as evidence to several legal cases and hence must be accurate and reliable.
The
test matches the DNA profile of a child with that of the alleged father. The
process becomes easier if the mother also participates in the test – we can
exclude half of the child’s
matching DNA in that case. However, you can always go for a motherless
Paternity Test if the mother is unwilling to participate in the test. A
paternity DNA test guarantees accuracy in case of exclusion (mismatch) and
99.9% accuracy for inclusions (if the alleged father is the biological father).

A Paternity Test for Court usually requires samples from a person’s buccal cells, which can be easily and painlessly collected using cotton swabs (Buccal Swabs), by rubbing them on the inside of the cheek walls. We carry out every sample for a DNA test, including the Legal DNA paternity test, twice to ensure complete accuracy of test results.
