A maternity DNA test is used to verify the biological relationship between a mother and her child. While often less common than paternity testing, there are situations where proving maternity becomes crucial. In legal matters, immigration cases, or adoption disputes, a legal maternity DNA test offers undeniable scientific proof of the biological connection.

When is a Legal Maternity Test Required?

There are several circumstances where this test becomes necessary:

  • Immigration Cases: Some immigration authorities require proof of biological ties when paperwork is missing, unclear, or questioned. A legal maternity DNA test can provide the necessary documentation to support visa or citizenship applications.
  • Adoption Disputes: In cases involving adoption, custody, or child abduction, verifying the biological mother may be essential for resolving legal proceedings.
  • Hospital Mix-Ups: Though rare, incidents where newborns are accidentally switched in hospitals have occurred. In such cases, a legal DNA test can help confirm a child's true biological mother.

What Makes It Legal?

Unlike at-home DNA tests meant for personal use, a legal maternity test follows a strict chain of custody. This means the sample collection is supervised, documented, and verified by a third party to ensure the results are admissible in court. Our laboratory must also be accredited and authorized to conduct legal DNA testing.

The Testing Process

The test itself is simple and painless. A buccal (cheek) swab is taken from both the child and the alleged mother. Once the samples are collected following legal guidelines, they are sent to a certified lab for analysis. Results are usually available within a week and are delivered in an official, court-admissible format.
