What is the reason for a paternity test? A paternity test is a surefire way to find out if somebody is the biological father of a child. These tests are requested in a variety of cases, especially when child custody becomes a matter of attention. They are also important in support hearings, as they can help ensure that a parent is receiving support they deserve. When parents are uncertain, a paternity test might be the best thing for answers you can rely on.

What if the father of the child is refusing a paternity test? If the father is refusing a paternity test but you want to ensure that you receive results, you have the right to bring a suit.
