Post-Mortem DNA Collection
When a parent passes before paternity is confirmed, we handle the collection with care.
Fully booked. Every appointment for this service is taken. Call or text [(000) 000-0000] to join the cancellation list, or book a DOT collection, which is still open.
Service description
We coordinate with the medical examiner, coroner, or funeral home to collect a sample from the deceased, then collect the child and any other relatives with full chain of custody.
These results are used for estate, inheritance, Social Security, and other benefits cases.
To get started
- Contact us as soon as possible, before burial or cremation
- Have the funeral home or medical examiner's contact information ready
Cancellation policy
Appointments can be rescheduled at no charge with at least 48 hours' notice. Reschedules inside 48 hours carry a [$00] fee, and missed appointments must be rebooked and paid again.
