Our DNA Paternity Testing Services in Chicago
We’re proud to offer a wide range of paternity testing services tailored to suit different needs and situations. We understand how important it is to have clear, accurate answers regarding family relationships. Here is what we offer in Chicago:
Home Paternity Testing
Sometimes, you might want answers about who the father of a child is for your own personal reasons. Our at-home paternity test is perfect for this. It’s a simple process you can do by yourself at home.
We send you everything you need to collect a DNA sample from the inside of your cheek. Then, you send it back to our lab where experts look at the DNA and find out the answers you’re looking for. Usually, you’ll know the results in just a few days.
Legal Paternity Testing
There are times when you need paternity test results for court or legal stuff, like figuring out who should have custody of a child or how to arrange child support. That’s where our Legal Paternity Testing comes in.
This test is done in a way that the court will accept it. Someone watches while the DNA sample is collected to make sure everything is done right. This makes sure the test results can be used in court or for legal things, like immigration.
Prenatal Paternity Testing
Knowing who the father is can also be important even before a baby is born. We offer a safe and non-invasive test for this. It can be done early in pregnancy, starting from the 9th week.
We take a blood sample from the mother and a cheek swab from the possible father. The test looks at the baby’s DNA found in the mother’s blood and compares it to the father’s DNA to see if they match. Our team handles this delicate process with care, respect, and privacy.
More DNA Tests Available in Chicago
At our Chicago office, DNA North America is happy to offer many types of DNA testing services that meet what our clients need. We have tests for family matters, like figuring out if someone is the dad or mom, and tests for learning about where you come from.
- Maternity Testing: This test finds out who a child’s biological mom is. It’s useful in situations like surrogacy, adoption, or just making sure of family connections.
- Siblingship Testing: This test checks if two people have the same one or two parents, which helps figure out if they are full or half brothers or sisters.
- Grandparentage Testing: This test is used to see if there’s a biological link between grandparents and a grandchild, especially when the child’s parents can’t be tested.
- Avuncular (Aunt/Uncle) Testing: This helps find out if someone is really the biological aunt or uncle of a child.
- Twin Zygosity: This test looks at DNA to see if twins are identical (coming from the same egg) or fraternal (coming from two different eggs).
- Gencodex (Identity Testing): Gencodex uses DNA to confirm a person’s identity, which is really accurate because everyone’s DNA is unique.
- Infidelity Test: This kind of test checks for DNA from different people on things like clothes to see if there might have been cheating.
We do all these tests following strict lab rules to make sure they’re as accurate as possible. Whether you want to know more about your family, where you come from, need information for court, or want to understand health risks, our team in Chicago is ready to give you the clear and trustworthy answers you’re looking for.
How Legal Paternity Test Works in Chicago
Step 1: Collecting DNA Samples
First, we need a little bit of DNA from the child and the possible father. Don’t worry, getting DNA doesn’t hurt at all! We use a soft swab, kind of like a Q-tip, to gently collect some cells from the inside of the cheek. If it’s a prenatal paternity testing, we take a blood sample from the mom and a cheek swab from the dad.
Step 2: Analyzing the DNA
Next, our scientists look closely at the DNA in our lab. They compare specific parts of the DNA from the child to the same parts in the possible father’s DNA. Since a child’s DNA is a mix of their mom’s and dad’s DNA, if the man is indeed the father, the DNA will match in certain spots.
Step 3: Getting the Results
After we’ve looked at the DNA, we figure out the results. This part is done with a lot of care to make sure it’s super accurate. If the DNA from the child and the man matches in the right places, then he is the biological father. We usually have the answers ready within a few days, and we keep everything confidential.
