DNA paternity testing is useful in many situations, including:
- To assist women seeking child support from a man who denies he is a
child's biological father. Courts usually accept DNA testing results in
determining whether or not an alleged father should be responsible for child
support. If DNA paternity test results show that a tested man
is not excluded as being the father of a child, the courts usually
determine him to be responsible for child support.
- To help men attempting to win custody or visitation rights.
- To provide peace of mind for men wishing to confirm paternity.
- To establish conclave proof of heritage for an adopted child seeking their biological parents.
- To determine grand-parentage, inheritance rights, insurance claims or Social Security benefits.
- To assist in immigration cases on the grounds that an individual is a biological relative of a citizen.
- To determine rightful heirs by DNA profiling for estate purposes.
- Insurance companies often require proof of paternity in order
for them to add a child on an alleged father's insurance
policy. This most often happens when the mother and father are not married, or
if the alleged father's name was not put on the birth certificate at the time of
birth. In these cases, DNA testing is the only proof of paternity that insurance
companies will accept.
