How do you determine the paternity of a child?

Well the mother never needs to establish maternity as she knows that's her child, but the father would have to establish paternity by taking a DNA test. The most accurate test are done by swabbing both mother and father's inside cheek with a cotton swab along with the child to match the DNA. Now if the mother is non willing to test, paternity can still be established by just the father and child testing alone.
