Any parent will tell you that their children are the most important thing in their lives, and in the same conversation, they’ll also tell you they’re the costliest! According to research conducted by LendingTree, it currently costs $297,674 to raise a child from birth through age 18, a 35% increase since 2023. Our kids are certainly worth every penny, but half of all marriages end in divorce in America, and far too many fathers are either unwilling or unable to pay their fair share after the marriage ends. But our team at First Choice is in your corner, and we offer confidential, legally binding paternity testing services with no appointment needed!

We’re Arkansas’ most trusted third-party administrator, and we keep a Medical Review Officer (MRO) on staff to verify the accuracy of all testing results. The paternity testing process is quick and easy, and also completely painless. We’ll collect a DNA sample using a mouth swab from both the child and the alleged father, and we can also test siblings or parents in the event that the alleged father is unable or unwilling to submit to testing. You’ll typically receive legally binding results within 2 to 5 business days, and we can also send results directly to any court or agency you choose.

You’ll need to bring the child’s birth certificate when you come in for testing, and all adult donors will need to present a driver’s license or a government-issued photo ID. If the alleged father lives outside Arkansas, we can also coordinate testing through our nationwide network of trusted third-party administrators.

It’s always unfortunate whenever parents get divorced, and far too many children are forced to grow up without a father in the home. But parenting will always be a shared responsibility, and every father is obligated to provide for his children, even if he no longer lives in the same household. Establishing paternity is an important first step in holding deadbeat fathers accountable, and our team members are all here to make the process quick and easy!
