Abstract: At present, paternity test technology is relatively mature, but there are still risks in forensic expertise. The paper made statistical analysis of the appraisal institutions and appraisers engaged in paternity test in Shandong Province. We discussed issues including the acceptance of entrustment, consulation work before acceptance, some special cases, the implementation of laboratory certification and accreditation, and personnel capacity improvement,in order to emphasize the importance of preventing risks in forensic paternity test for appraisers. In Shandong Province, there are more paternity appraisal institutions whose main body are enterprises than those whose main body are hospitals and universities. Some of appraisers have part-time jobs in several other appraisal fields. In the process of accepting the cases, appraisal institutions and appraisers should assess potential risks in advance, and conduct appraisal according to the laws and regulations strictly. At the same time, forensic appraisers should conduct relevant scientific researches and communications, improve their professional ability, so as to ensure the accuracy of appraisal results and let science and technology speak for justice.
