What paternity DNA testing at the Omaha office involves
The Omaha office option gives you two ways to complete a paternity DNA test locally. Path one: walk in during office hours or book an appointment, and a trained DNA specialist collects cheek swabs from the alleged father and the child on-site. Path two: come in, pick up a kit, take it home to collect the swabs at your own pace, and drop the kit back at the office or mail it in. Either path uses the same US-based AABB-accredited and CAP-certified lab and produces the same accuracy.
How accurate is paternity DNA testing?
Paternity testing compares 24 DNA genetic markers between the alleged father and the child, with dual processing so each sample is reviewed twice for consistency. When paternity is confirmed, results typically show 99.999% or higher probability. When paternity is excluded, exclusion is 100%. In-office collection eliminates two common causes of sample viability issues: incorrect swabbing technique and swabs sealed while wet. Trained staff handle both.
When to add the mother's cheek swab
Including the mother's sample can strengthen the paternity comparison in some scenarios by letting the lab isolate paternal markers in the child's DNA profile. She can walk in with the family or come separately. Her sample is optional and included at no additional cost.
When to choose legal chain-of-custody testing instead
This service is for informational testing. If you need results for court, custody, child support, immigration, or estate proceedings, a legal chain-of-custody test is required. Legal testing has to be done in-office with photo identification and witnessed collection. Both are available at the Omaha office as separate services.
When to consider the at-home kit instead
If you're not local to Omaha or don't want to make the trip, the at-home paternity kit ships nationwide via FedEx with the same lab process and accuracy. The main tradeoff is that self-collection requires you to follow the instructions carefully, and shipping adds a few days versus walking out with samples already at the lab within the same day.
