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 alleged father and child or children. 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 ordering one of our testing kits online and shipping the specimens back to us.

Legal DNA Tests vs. "Peace of Mind" At-Home Tests

A Legal Paternity Test is a court admissible lab testing service performed at an AABB accredited laboratory. 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. A legal paternity DNA test will hold up in court for such matters as child support or to change the name on a birth certificate. This test must be performed using strict chain of custody procedures. Our Rialto DNA testing technicians are trained to follow these guidelines so that the results will be legally admissible.

Rialto, California - DNA Testing

Experts Say...

The Law Office of Joyce Holcomb, serving Rialto, CA, explained that unmarried parents need to establish paternity for the parents to receive child support orders. In September 2022, the law office said, "Unmarried parents may sign a voluntary declaration of paternity acknowledging that the man is the child's father. This document is legally binding and provides the father with all the same legal rights and responsibilities as the mother, which includes child custody and support obligations."

The Divorce and Family Law Attorneys serve Rialto, CA, and explain fathers' parental rights and responsibilities. "A father also has many responsibilities to his child," the law firm said. "These responsibilities include raising and caring for his child, providing emotional and financial support for his child, and protecting his child from danger, including any danger to his child that is presented by his child's mother, if necessary (i.e., mother's drug abuse, failure to protect, child endangerment, etc.)," the law firm stated.

Proving Paternity for Child Custody Purposes in Rialto, CA

The easiest way for unmarried Rialto parents to establish paternity is by signing a Paternity Acknowledgement form. This voluntary form should only be signed if there is no question about paternity. Otherwise, paternity can be established through a court order and DNA testing to determine paternity. DNA testing is used when there is a question or doubt about who the biological father is or if the alleged father denies paternity.

The Importance of Establishing Paternity in Rialto, CA

When unmarried Rialto parents establish paternity, the child gets to develop relationships with both parents and has rights to the same benefits as children born to married parents. By establishing paternity, the child has access to financial support from the mother and father, has both parents named on the birth certificate, and obtains the right to inheritance, medical insurance, social security, veteran's benefits, life insurance, and other available benefits. The child also has access to medical records and documentation from both parents.
