At Simply Genetics, our Legal Relationship Testing services provide court-admissible documentation to establish biological connections between family members.
Definition
Legal relationship testing is a DNA analysis that confirms biological relationships between family members. This testing follows strict chain-of-custody procedures to ensure results are admissible in legal proceedings and government applications.

Required for legal proceedings or immigration purposes.
Provides certified and admissible documentation.
Why The Test is Performed
Legal Relationship Testing is often essential in cases requiring proof of biological connections, such as child custody disputes, adoption proceedings, or inheritance claims. These tests help ensure that decisions are based on clear and accurate evidence, giving courts and agencies the information they need to make fair and informed rulings.
For immigration applications, this testing provides evidence of familial ties when traditional documentation is unavailable or insufficient. Whether clarifying parental relationships or confirming sibling status, Legal Relationship Testing offers clarity and compliance with legal requirements.
