Genealogists Launches DIY Service to Help Individuals Find Their Biological
Family
[SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH, November 24, 2020] -
Legacy Tree Genealogists, the world's leading genealogy research firm,
announced today the launch of a new service aimed at helping individuals find
their biological family members. The company has created a free downloadable DIY DNA™ Workbook for Unknown Parentage with
step-by-step instructions and worksheets to track matches and relevant
information.
Additionally,
users have the option to purchase a DIY
DNA™ Consultation Package, which
provides clients with a series of five 45-minute, virtual one-on-one
consultations with a genetic genealogist. Their genealogist will help them
evaluate their matches and provide research strategies and guidance as they
work together to solve their unknown parent's identity. At only 475 USD, this
DIY option provides users with a cost-effective resource to have their research
questions answered in real-time by a professional genealogist while still being
heavily involved in the research process.

"Advancements in consumer DNA testing have transformed
genealogy," said Legacy Tree president, Jessica Taylor. "More and
more people are looking to connect with their biological roots, and those
answers are within reach. We've helped thousands of individuals find answers
about their biological family, and we wanted to put that expertise into a
format that will allow us to help even more people," said Taylor.
"The knowledge of who you are and where you come from should be attainable
for everyone, and with this product, we hope to help make that possible."
The DIY DNA™ Consultations utilize screen-sharing
technology that allows the user to share their DNA results with the genealogist
in a secure, virtual environment. To download the free DIY DNA™ Workbook or purchase the DIY DNA™ Consultation Package, visit https://legacytree.com/diydna.
