DNA VUE
A post-mortem DNA test establishes a biological relationship using the sample of a person who has passed away. Families most often need this to confirm paternity for inheritance, probate or personal certainty. We handle every case with discretion and care, and guide you through each step.
Samples may be obtained through a coroner, hospital or funeral director, or from stored samples taken during the person's lifetime. Which samples are viable depends on the circumstances, so every case starts with a conversation. We confirm what is possible, the right test and a total quote before anything proceeds.
Tell us the situation and what the result is for. We explain which samples can be used and confirm a total quote.
We liaise with the coroner, hospital or other holder of the sample, and arrange collection from living relatives where needed.
Samples are analysed by ISO 17025 accredited partner laboratories, with results reported as a statistical probability and explained in plain English.
Released only to the people and professionals you authorise, in a format suitable for probate and legal proceedings when the legal route is chosen.
