DNA Testing Court Admissible Results

ARCpoint of Martinez provides Court Admissible DNA Paternity Testing Results

Some situations require court admissible results. This means that the results of the tests are allowed to be used in a court of law as evidence. In order to be admissible, tests and results must be handled according to certain legal procedures.

If mom was not married to her child's father, she must legally establish paternity to collect child support payments. She must establish paternity before she can establish a court order for child support. More families than ever before need to establish paternity in the U.S.

There has been a 377% increase in the number of children born to never married-parents in the past 10 years. Paternity may also need to be established if a couple was married and living apart when the child was conceived or if the couple was married and the husband says he is not the biological father.

Benefits of Establishing Paternity

Collection of child support payments means that the responsibility for support is taken care of by both parents

Children can be covered by father's medical insurance

Children become eligible for Social Security and Veteran's benefits from their father

The child's right to inheritance is protected

The child is legitimatized and their heritage is complete
