Estate tests or probate tests help prove family relationships in cases of estate settlement.

LEGAL TESTS

When should I use a legal estate (probate) test?

If you want to be included in a family member’s estate, a DNA test can be used to show a relationship to the deceased person.

DECEASED SAMPLE

When an alleged father is deceased, paternity testing may still be performed if a biological specimen from the deceased individual has been collected by a coroner’s office or other agency. DNA testing utilizing a deceased individual’s sample can require coordination between multiple agencies.
