Specimens we can test for DNA

The easiest and most reliable way to obtain a DNA sample for paternity testing is to swab the inner cheeks of the people being tested. These skin cells are known as buccal cells, and they rub off easily onto cotton swabs and remain in place for analysis by our laboratory. Other specimen samples, such as hair follicles, fingernails, and garments that might contain someone's DNA, can also be tested. An Alternative Specimen DNA Test is done by registering online and shipping the specimens to us.

Legally Admissible DNA Tests vs. "Peace of Mind" At-Home Tests

A Legal Paternity Test is a court admissible DNA testing service. Accurate results for DNA paternity testing with 99.99% confidence or greater take about a week.

When deciding which type of DNA test is right for you, consider first what you might do with the results. In order for the results of a DNA test to hold up in court, for child support, or to change the name on a birth certificate, the test must be done at a clinic using strict chain of custody procedures. Our Anaheim Hills DNA testing technicians are trained to follow guidelines that ensure that the results can be used for legal purposes.

Presumed Paternity in California

According to family law attorneys at the Anaheim-based Wallin & Klarich, there are four circumstances where a man is "presumed" to be a child's father:

looks_one
If he is married to the child's mother when the child is born or conceived
looks_two
If he attempted to marry the child's mother before the child was born or conceived
looks_3
If he marries the child's mother after the child is born and either agrees to support the child or have his name placed on the child's birth certificate
looks_4
If he openly treated the child as if he or she was his own (also called Parentage by Estoppel)

Establishing Paternity in Orange County

If a child is born to unmarried parents in California, the parents need to take steps to establish paternity. According to the Superior Court of California in Orange County, a court judgment of paternity is required. This can be done by completing and filing a Voluntary Acknowledgment of Paternity form or by filing a parentage case in court. A case can be filed by the child's mother, tentative father, a personal representative of the child, or the Department of Child Support Services in the county where the child lives.

Why is Paternity Important?

Every child deserves to have a connection to his or her identity. Anaheim Hills attorney Michael B. Efron points out other important reasons why parents should make the effort to establish paternity. Perhaps most importantly, the child's mother cannot receive child support until legal paternity is established. In addition, the child's father won't have the right to be involved in parenting decisions or seek visitation or custody.

In addition, once legal paternity is established, the child will have the opportunity to receive health and life insurance benefits available through his or her father. The child may also be eligible for Social Security, veterans, and/or military family allowances granted under the father's record.
