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 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.
Legally Admissible DNA Tests vs. "Peace of Mind" At-Home Tests
A Legal Paternity Test is a court admissible DNA testing service. 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. In order for the results of a DNA test to hold up in court, for child support, or to change the name on a birth certificate, the test must be done at a clinic using strict chain of custody procedures. Our Corona DNA testing technicians are trained to follow guidelines that ensure that the results can be used for legal purposes.

Corona, California - DNA Testing
Establishing paternity in Corona, CA
In Corona, California, unwed parents who conceive a child must establish paternity for the child to have a legal father when he or she is born. Paternity can be established at the hospital when the child is born by signing a Voluntary Declaration of Parentage (VDP). This form is to be signed by both the mother and the father, and legally acknowledges the legal father. Before signing the VDP, it is important that both parents are sure who the biological father is. Filing the VDP has the same effect as a court order.
If either parent is unsure about the biological father, or if the alleged father does not want to admit that he is the parent, then either parent can start a paternity case with the court. The court will likely order a DNA test, which can help the judge determine the biological father and establish paternity.
DNA test leads California woman to her family
Barbara was never really close to her mom and did not know much about her father. Her aunt raised her. She waited for years, and eventually took a DNA test to learn more about her roots. The results connected her to many cousins and extended family, and she learned her father had passed years ago.
Although Barbara was sad to hear of her father's passing, she was happy to discover her half-siblings. They never even knew she existed. The biggest surprise was that their families lived very close. Barbara and her half-sister even attended the same school!
The siblings finally met, and even gifted Barbara with an album of family photos. Barbara was glad to hear all the stories they told her about her father, and she felt relieved to she finally solve this puzzle. At last, she found a new family of people who became her close friends, and she could finally stop wondering about the unknown.
