Newark Paternity Test Centers - New Jersey

If you have been struggling with the possible paternity of your child it's time to put an end to your unrest and figure out who the biological father of your child is. You can look at your child and analyze their physical characteristics all you want but that does not offer the same certainty as a DNA paternity test. If you need child support from your child's father the certainty of your child's paternity, or other paternal support, a DNA test is what you need.

A legal DNA paternity test is a great choice for a woman trying to prove her child's paternity. It can be difficult to track down a child's potential father or convince him to get a DNA test, but since a legal DNA test is admissible in court, it is easier to require a alleged father to get tested. With the help of your chosen DNA lab the DNA samples of your child and the alleged father will be collected quickly and painlessly.

DNA labs that provide legal DNA paternity tests have a number of procedures and safeguards in place to be sure that the DNA test results are accurate and delivered to you promptly. First, legal DNA paternity tests require that a chain of custody be followed. Therefore all of the tested parties will have their identification checked and a copy of their ID is sent to the lab. The DNA collector will also take photos of the tested parties and these photos become part of the DNA test results record. The DNA samples (taken from the inside of the cheek using a cotton swab) will be taken by a neutral third party that has no vested interest in the outcome of the test. This ensures that the father of your child cannot send someone in his place or use someone else's DNA to falsify the test results.

The DNA samples are carefully monitored once they are sent to the lab. Everyone who accesses them is recorded and their location and accessibility is always accounted for. This eliminates the risk of samples being tampered with, lost, or mixed up with someone else's samples. When the DNA samples are examined to determine the probability of paternity, you can be certain that the result you get is accurate. Paternal DNA testing compares certain DNA "alleles" present in the child and both parents to determine whether or not there is a parental relationship. Since each biological parent contributes 50% of the child's genetic makeup a DNA test examines the child and parent's DNA for a match. If half of the child's DNA lines up with the parent's DNA, there is a relationship. If there is no match there is no parental relationship. Since DNA is so highly individualized you can be certain that the result you get is accurate and you'll have the truth you need about your child's paternity!

When it comes down to it you can be absolutely certain that the results you get from an AABB accredited DNA testing center are accurate. These results can be used to get child support, get the alleged father added to your child's birth certificate, or entitle your child to the alleged father's social security. It will help your child in more ways than you can imagine.
