Legally Admissible vs. Home Test - Important Information

$350.00 All Inclusive

CONSUMERS PLEASE NOTE #1:

Not all Home Paternity Tests are created equal. Prices vary widely. Regardless of whether you chose a our Legally Admissible test or a home test.... once the specimen is submitted to our lab, the testing is performed in the same manner. Other labs may skimp on their Home Test. Read their fine print!

Our tests are 100 times more discriminating than the industry standard. Typical positive results exceed 99.99%. We will complete up to 19 markers to assure you reliable results. Most labs run only one with less than 10 markers, greatly increasing the chance for inaccurate results.

CONSUMERS PLEASE NOTE #2:

It is very important to understand the differences in legal standing and reporting for accredited lab versus self-collection. When making your decision please consider carefully the intended use of the paternity testing results.

The following comparisons may be used for reference.

Legally Admissible Collection

Self-Collection

Order

Performed at home by individuals being tested using a home DNA collection kit with cheek or buccal swabs and easy-to-follow directions.

Legal Standing

Legally Admissible Collection

Self-Collection

Useful for all legal purposes including child custody and support, social security, insurance, military, adoption, inheritance, tribal and immigration rights and benefits.

Order

Even though our labs are certified & AABB accredited, the results of a home test are not useful for legal purposes because it is not possible to independently verify who has been tested.

A very good test, but not useful beyond 'piece of mind'.
