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.

Victorville, California - DNA Testing
Establishing paternity in Victorville, CA
Suppose the father and mother of a child in California are not married. In this case, even if the father takes a DNA test and knows he is the biological father, he still has no legal rights or responsibilities toward the child unless both parents establish paternity. In Victorville, California, parents have two options. They can sign a voíuntary declaration of paternity, or they can get a court order.
If they decide to sign the declaration, it has the same value as a court order, but it must be signed voluntarily and only if they have zero doubts about paternity. Once parents sign it, they must file it with the California Department of Child Support Services so it becomes effective.
Another option is a court order, which means the judge will establish paternity. The judge usually asks the alleged father and the child to undergo a DNA test. Based on the DNA test results, the judge determines paternity.
Victorville, California: Benefits of establishing paternity
Besides the emotional benefit of getting to know both parents, children can get multiple other benefits from establishing parentage, such as:
In addition to the above benefits for the child, parents can also benefit from establishing paternity. Parentage must be legally established for the court to determine custody, visitation hours, or child support.
