What do you need
the answer for?

The right test depends on what the result will be used for. Select your situation below, or call us and describe it in your own words. We will advise you on the most suitable option.

01

Private peace of mind

A peace-of-mind paternity or relationship test provides a clear answer for your own certainty. Samples can be collected at home or in clinic. The result is for personal use only and cannot be used in court.

Peace-of-mind tests from £115 →
02

Court or official use

A legal test includes professionally witnessed sample collection, verified photo ID and a documented chain of custody. The result is suitable for family court, child maintenance and official records in England & Wales.

Legal tests from £350 →
03

Testing during pregnancy

Non-invasive prenatal paternity testing is available from 7 weeks of pregnancy. It requires a blood sample from the mother and a cheek swab from the possible father, with no risk to the pregnancy.

Visa or immigration application

Immigration DNA tests follow a legal chain of custody and are accepted for visa, passport and other immigration applications. We handle cases worldwide, with professional sample collection arranged overseas where needed.

05

When the father is unavailable

Paternity can often still be established through his relatives. Grandparentage and avuncular tests examine shared DNA across the family, and we will advise which relatives give the strongest result.

Relationship tests from £300 →
06

After a bereavement

Post-mortem DNA testing establishes a relationship using the sample of a person who has passed away, most often for probate, inheritance or personal certainty. Every case is handled with discretion and care.

How it works

From first call
to final certainty.

Four steps, fully guided. Separate appointments can be arranged for different parties, at different times or locations, so confidentiality is maintained for everyone involved.

01

Tell us your situation

Order online or call us. We confirm what the result is for, who needs to be tested, and the total price before you commit to anything.

02

Sample collection

A simple mouth swab, taken at home with our kit for peace-of-mind tests, or professionally collected with photo ID and chain of custody for legal tests.

03

Accredited analysis

Your samples are analysed by our ISO 17025 accredited partner laboratories, with results independently double-checked before release.

04

Secure results

A clear written result within 3–5 working days of samples reaching the laboratory, delivered only to you, with a plain-English explanation of what it means.

Our promise

Your privacy matters above all.

DNA testing is personal, sensitive, and often deeply emotional. Genetic data is special-category data under UK GDPR, and we treat it that way: every case is handled in strict confidence, results are released only to you, and nothing is shared without your explicit consent.

Testing only proceeds with the appropriate consent for every person sampled. For children, consent must come from someone with parental responsibility. If you are unsure how consent works in your situation, ask us before you order.

Frequently asked questions

Know exactly
what to expect.

Booking is simple. Order the test you need on our website, or call us on 020 8059 5620 to set up a date and time. Either way, we'll guide you through the process and help you choose the right test for your situation.

Most results are ready within 3–5 working days of your samples arriving at the laboratory. Prenatal and extended-relationship tests can take slightly longer because the analysis is more complex. We will confirm a clear timeline when you book.

Yes. Genetic data is special-category data under UK GDPR. Your details, samples and results are stored securely, released only to you, and never shared without your explicit consent. Separate appointments can be arranged so parties never need to meet.

Yes. We provide both peace-of-mind testing for personal clarity and legal chain-of-custody testing for court, child support or official documentation. We'll help you decide which option fits your needs.

For legal testing, adults will need photo ID such as a driving licence or passport. For peace-of-mind tests, ID is helpful but not required. We'll confirm everything when you book.

Yes. Our Non-Invasive Prenatal Paternity Test (NIPP) is completely safe for both mother and baby. It requires only a simple blood draw from the mother and a cheek swab from the alleged father.

Not necessarily. We can arrange separate appointments at different times or locations if needed, ensuring convenience and confidentiality for everyone involved.

Only if you choose a legal, chain-of-custody test. Samples must be professionally collected with verified photo ID for a court in England & Wales to rely on the result. A peace-of-mind result cannot be upgraded afterwards, so please tell us upfront if court use is a possibility and we will recommend the right option.

Results are reported as a statistical probability. When the tested man is the biological father, the probability of paternity is typically greater than 99.99%. When he is not, the result excludes him conclusively. All analysis is performed by ISO 17025 accredited partner laboratories and independently double-checked.
