Legal Paternity DNA Testing

Ensure peace of mind and meet all legal requirements with our legally admissible paternity DNA tests, essential for child support, custody, adoption, court orders, birth certificates, wills, estates, tax forms, and more.

At Universal Genetics / Advanced Genetics, we partner with AABB-Accredited laboratories to guarantee that every DNA sample is meticulously collected, handled, and tested. For your test to be recognized by government agencies and immigration authorities such as U.S. Embassies, Consulates, and USCIS, maintaining a strict “Chain of Custody” is vital.

Chain of Custody involves comprehensive documentation that tracks the collection, custody, control, transfer, analysis, and final disposition of the DNA samples. This process ensures the proper identification of all parties involved and the accurate collection and handling of specimens. AABB standards mandate that every individual involved, from the specimen collector to the DNA analyst, is an unbiased third party with no stake in the test results. This rigorous procedure ensures that your DNA test results are legally admissible and accepted by relevant authorities.

Our extensive network of Collection Sites across the U.S. makes it easy to find a convenient location near you, ensuring the integrity and legal standing of your paternity DNA test. Choose us for a seamless, reliable testing experience.
