AABB Accreditation

AABB accreditation is the standard U.S. courts and immigration authorities (USCIS) reference for relationship DNA testing such as paternity tests. A legal paternity test is generally only as useful as the accreditation of the lab behind it. Paternity services publish their lab accreditations; checking for AABB before buying a legal test is basic due diligence.
