- Paternity (Non-Court)This test is performed for curiosity reasons only. Usually when a child is over 18 years of age, medical reasons, and/or not involving custody or child support. The accuracy is the same as a legal test however, it may not hold up in court if a dispute arises regarding child support or custody of a child.

- In-Home Test KitsThis test can be performed in the privacy of your own home for curiosity reasons. The accuracy of the test is the same as a legal test however, it will not hold up in court, as a third party did not collect the specimens. It is used for curiosity purposed only. Results available in 2 to 3 working days after specimen is received at the laboratory. Results will be mailed to your home or address provided after completion.
- Deceased PaternityThis test is typically performed when the alleged father is deceased and there has been an autopsy performed. A blood or tissue sample from the medical examiner's office needs to be sent to the laboratory. The test will prove paternity of the alleged father to the child being tested. Exhumation of deceased party is possible. Please contact our office for details.
- GrandpaternityThis test proves the paternity of a child when the alleged father is deceased or unavailable by testing both of the alleged father's parents.
- y-ChromosomeThis test can be performed to prove the paternity of two males within the paternal lineage. The test is done when the alleged father is deceased with no samples available for testing and the alleged grandparents are deceased or unavailable. This test can only be performed within the paternal line of the person in question as males receive their Y-chromosome from their father.
- MitochondrialThis test is performed to prove the maternity of a person. The test can trace only the maternal side of the family as a child received their mitochondria from their mother. This test is useful when there is only a small sample available for testing and/or in a situation where you need to give a positive ID of a deceased person.
- Siblingship/Twin ZygosityThis test will provide a probability of whether the people being testing are siblings. The test can not give a conclusive answer as samples from both possible parents are needed. The test is stronger if both parties have the same mother that is willing to be tested. The twin Zygosity test is performed to show whether sets of twins are fraternal or identical. The test may be performed on all multiple births.
