The Many Hats Of A Reproductive Lawyer
We were honored to be invited to guest blog for the Fertility Tribe, an amazing infertility support community.
The most important job of any ART attorney is to protect the rights of gestational carriers (or surrogates), egg/sperm donors, and intended parents when they opt to engage in an ART arrangement. These arrangements include the donation of eggs, sperm, or embryos to an individual or couple, or a surrogacy agreement between an intended parent(s) working with a gestational carrier (a woman, not genetically related to the child, who will carry and give birth to the baby). ART attorneys work with single parents, married and unmarried couples, opposite and same-sex couples from the US and around the globe to ensure that their path to parenthood is smooth and legally sound.
