How Does Our Legal DNA Profile Test Compare?
The Legal DNA Profile Test provides a verified genetic profile for identification, documentation, or official record purposes. This service creates a standardized STR (Short Tandem Repeat) profile that serves as a unique genetic identifier and is often used for legal, immigration, personal identification, or future comparison needs.
All testing is performed by an AABB-accredited U.S. laboratory using strict chain-of-custody procedures. Participant identity is verified at the time of collection, and all samples are securely documented and handled to ensure the integrity of the results. Final reports are notarized and suitable for court or official use.
Two profiling options are available based on your needs. The Standard STR Profile analyzes 16–24 genetic markers and provides a comprehensive individual DNA profile. A Y-STR Profile is also available for male participants and analyzes 13–16 markers on the Y chromosome, which is passed through the paternal line.
Sample collection must be completed by a trained professional. You may choose Professional Collection Service at a nearby approved facility through our nationwide network, or arrange collection through your own physician or clinic.
Once testing is complete, results are typically delivered by email within 24 hours, if email delivery is selected. A notarized hard-copy report is mailed within approximately one week of test completion.
