Common Reasons to Get a Paternity Test
Many situations call for establishing paternity. Some of the most common reasons for seeking paternity testing include:
- Confirming biological parentage
- Establishing child support eligibility
- Securing custody or visitation rights
- Applying for government or military benefits for a child
- Determining inheritance rights
- Resolving legal parenthood matters
- Personal reasons
In Texas, changes to family law often require documented biological relationships in court. By working with a Houston-based provider, you receive support that reflects local requirements and experience with cases unique to the area’s legal system.
Legal & Non-Legal Paternity Testing Options
Legal Paternity Testing
If you require results for court—including child custody, child support, or inheritance claims—our legal paternity tests follow strict chain-of-custody protocols for court-admissible documentation.
Legal paternity testing in Houston must comply with the Texas Family Code and often requires records for state or county court filings. Our staff guides you through each step so your documentation meets all state and local requirements. Clients in Houston regularly seek legal tests for proceedings at family courts downtown, so we make sure you have the documentation and validation you need.
Personal Paternity Testing
If you seek paternity confirmation for personal reasons, we offer a cost-effective option that does not include legal documentation. These results are just as accurate but not intended for court.
Personal testing works well for families who want answers or assurance before starting any legal process. Our approach protects your privacy, and results remain secure and confidential. Many in the Houston area select this option for quick answers without extra paperwork or legal steps.
Paternity Testing for Child Support Cases
When child support is at issue, establishing paternity is key. Our court-admissible paternity tests offer the evidence required for legal proceedings and help children get the support they deserve.
Texas courts often require a certified paternity test before issuing support orders. Houston’s busy family law system means working with a local provider can streamline your process and help manage any issues during your case. We coordinate test scheduling to keep up with the demanding timelines of area courts.
Paternity Testing Without the Mother
Although including the mother’s DNA can improve accuracy, it is not required for a valid paternity test. Our advanced DNA testing methods can confirm paternity with just the child’s and the alleged father’s samples.
Families in Houston sometimes request paternity testing without the mother present. We use advanced DNA analysis that meets local legal standards so your results are reliable in these cases. This flexibility helps families move forward, even when not everyone can participate.
