The standard is 30 days to respond to a summons. A Paternity test order is a summons to appear at a designated location, such as a specific DNA Testing Clinic for sampling. If the potential father does not appear, the court could decide to issue a second summons, or what is far more common, enter a default order of paternity, and a potential default order for child support. It is not in the best interest of their client for the opposing attorney to make this easy, or not wait until the last minute.
The courts keep a list of certified clinics that they accept evidence from. You could contact the Judge's Secretary about making your own appointment.
If you are the potential father, you need to consider obtaining your own legal representation. Child support amounts are not mandatory. A rebuttal presumption argument can be made to pay more or less than the guideline amount. The opposing attorney will be entering evidence to benefit their client, which could be detrimental to you. That attorney is not your friend.
A properly prepared attorney will know how to oppose these arguments, and what to present on your behalf. The difference, even for a minimum wage earner, could be substantial over the life of the order. Also, a less experienced (cheaper) attorney with an experience paralegal, can be as effective as an experienced one. You just need to learn how to find one.

The law varies in different jurisdictions and important details are missing. Generally, it depends on whether the father has established his paternity and then exercised his parental rights by requesting joint custody and/or a visitation schedule. If the parents are unmarried the mother has sole custody until the father has established his paternity legally, in court.The law varies in different jurisdictions and important details are missing.

Does an illegitimate child have a claim against an estate if paternity has not been established or recognised can paternity be enforced if said child is an adult?
Paternity may not be legally established on hearsay, at least not in the United States. If paternity is established for legal purposes via DNA testing or other means posthumously, you may have grounds to challenge the estate, but that would depend on the law where you reside. Generally, you would have a delineated period of time in which to do so (in my area, it is 6 months or any claims are forever barred). When in doubt, contact an attorney.
