Detective Denise often gets asked as part of our work in family matters “Who’s the real daddy?” . Jeremy Kyle has a lot to answer for with his seemingly instant DNA results and also stories of over the counter and Internet paternity testing kits being delivered to homes across the UK. These tests are often not carried out within the guidelines and the accuracy may be questionable put that together with the discovery that a child might not be related to its’ father can have a huge impact on a family. All of the do-it-yourself kits have no standing in a UK court, so if you are trying to extract maintenance out of a wayward parent or get you name on or off a birth certificate it’s probably a better idea to do it right in the beginning and get a court accredited test done.
For those reasons we only pass on the name of a UK based, trusted DNA tester, all paternity tests are carried out in the UK and no samples are shipped abroad. Please do speak to us and we will get our recommended accredited supplier to give you a call without obligation to talk you through the options.
