ARCpoint of Oceanside provides Court Admissible DNA 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.
