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.

Our Alpharetta DNA testing technicians are trained to follow these guidelines so that the results will be legally admissible.

Alpharetta, Georgia - DNA Testing
In Alpharetta, Georgia, unmarried parents must take the necessary steps to establish paternity. Fortunately, there are two primary options available to achieve this important goal.
The first option is the Voluntary Acknowledgment of Paternity (VAP). This process allows parents to voluntarily establish paternity by signing the VAP form. You can conveniently complete this step at the hospital shortly after the baby is born, or later at the vital records office. If needed, you can even sign the form in the presence of a notary public at another location. Remember to submit the completed form to the vital records office within thirty days to ensure the process is finalized.
The second option involves seeking a resolution through the court system. If there are any doubts, disputes, or challenges regarding paternity, turning to the court is a viable solution. In such cases, the judge may order DNA testing to establish the biological relationship between the alleged father and the child. Rest assured, the DNA tests are painless and involve simple cheek swabs, providing reliable and quick results.

DNA tests helped two women with finding their sisters
Janine, who had been adopted from South Korea as a baby and raised in New Jersey, embarked on a journey to explore her genetic heritage. Curiosity led her to take a DNA test, hoping to gain insights into her genetics rather than actively seeking relatives. However, to her astonishment, the results revealed a sister named Jennifer, whom she had never known existed. The discovery of numerous shared similarities, including both having lived in Georgia for over a decade, deepened their connection. Finally meeting in Alpharetta in 2018, the sisters formed an unbreakable bond and became inseparable.
