Chain of custody documentation requires that

• DNA samples are collected by a neutral third party

• Each tested party provide positive and proper identification

• Each tested party is photographed and fingerprinted

• All samples are carefully tracked and documented through the entire testing process.

In addition, tested parties must complete Client Identification and Consent forms. In the case of testing of a minor, the child’s legal guardian is responsible for completing this form and consenting to the test.

If you anticipate that these results will be used in court to determine child support, custody, or inheritance issues, you must choose the Legal Test. If you are uncertain as to the best testing choice to meet your needs, please call us at 1-888-340-4644 for assistance from one of our counselors.
