We accept all major credit/debit cards and cash. Please note that we do not keep any cash on hand, so no change is available. Clients paying cash must pay the exact amount due.

We offer deferred billing to our business and government clients only. Individual clients must pay for any service at the time it is rendered.

Yes, our parking lot can accommodate trucks (and trailers) of any size.

YES. You can obtain accurate results without testing the mother. However, in a small percentage of cases, not including the mother’s sample can lead to inconclusive results, therefore it is always recommended to include the mother in the test, if she is available.

NO. Paternity testing can be performed using a buccal (cheek) swab. It is completely non-invasive and painless.

A sterile swab, very similar to a q-tip, is rubbed on the inside of the cheek from the child and the alleged father. If practical, the mother should also be sampled, however this is not mandatory for an accurate analysis.

YES. Because DNA is the same in every cell in your body, analysis performed on cheek cells is just as accurate as analysis performed on blood.

There are no age restrictions. DNA testing can be performed on individuals of any age. Newborns can be tested using either a buccal (cheek) swab or umbilical cord blood, both are easy and painless procedures.

Yes. However, it is more expensive and does involve some medical risk, therefore any mother interested in prenatal testing should consult with her OB/GYN. There are 2 procedures by which to collect prenatal DNA samples; Chorionic Villi Sampling (CVS), performed at ~10-13 weeks of pregnancy or Amniocentesis at ~14-24 weeks of age.

YES. Although it’s rare, there have been several cases in which non-maternity has been found while performing a routine paternity test.

YES. There are several options. Blood or buccal samples collected at the time of death can be used, tissue specimens from previous surgeries or an autopsy may be used, his parents can be tested to determine if they are grandparents, or the body can be exhumed and a tissue sample taken for testing.

It does not matter, the results are still valid.

It is possible for both individuals to have the same or similar genetics markers, therefore both of the alleged fathers need to be tested. If one of them is not available for testing, the laboratory should be informed of these circumstances, as extended marker testing may have to be performed.

YES. But ONLY if the alleged father agrees to it or there is a court order.

We can accommodate each participant of the same test with separate appointment times (for legal tests) and or locations across the U.S. If you are utilizing a private paternity test we can split the kit up and send each portion to a different address. Each kit is identified by a unique laboratory accession number so that all samples can be tested together once received back in the laboratory.

YES. Because DNA is the same in every cell in your body, analysis performed on cheek cells is the same as analysis performed on blood cells.

NO. DNA patterns are not altered by such things as drinking, eating, medication, or age. However, individuals who have had a bone marrow transplant should provide a buccal (cheek) sample instead of blood, since the transplant introduces donor DNA into the blood.

Once we receive your samples, results will be available in approximately 2 business days. For those needing faster service, express testing is also available.

The primary difference between the two types of tests is the sample collection method. Private paternity test samples can be collected by the test participants, without any witnesses and are not accredited by AABB at any laboratory. Legal paternity test samples are collected by a disinterested 3rd party, where your identification will be verified, and a photograph may be taken. The purpose of these stringent procedures is to ensure that the participants are who they say they are. Legal tests are accredited by AABB.

YES. As long as you choose the Paternity Test LEGAL.

NO, unless you live in New York. While many cases do involve doctors and attorney’s, you are not required to have an order.

NO. Paternity testing is not considered a medically necessary procedure and therefore is not covered.

Information of any kind regarding your test will only be available to the individuals tested or other designated representative(s) (i.e. Attorneys) when a written authorization is provided.

Reports are sent by email/fax (as requested) to each adult tested and their designated representative. Reports are also sent via US mail for legal tests. Due to the sensitive and confidential nature of the test, results will not be given over the telephone.
