An invaluable resource for anyone who has taken or is considering taking a consumer DNA test

At age 53, attorney Maria Leonard Olsen learned from a DNA test that the father who raised her is not her biological father. Her world was upended. As she sought out resources and support groups, Maria discovered she was far from alone. About one in seven adults in the U.S. have used consumer DNA tests. These numbers are only expected to grow-and the fallout for many will be significant. In the meantime, people are left without guidance or resources on how to protect themselves.

Few consumers today understand the possible consequences of taking a consumer DNA test. In Before and After the DNA Test, Maria Leonard Olsen brings legal expertise, personal experience, and research involving hundreds of interviews with others impacted by surprise DNA test results to help you navigate this new terrain. Learn what you need to know before you take the test and what you need to do to protect yourself afterwards-as well as advice and support for how to handle surprising results-in this practical, wide-ranging, and accessible guide.
