I call this area of law “warm fuzzy law” because usually matches go well, children are born, and families grow. What a blessing. However, as an attorney, I know that contracts are put in place for the moments and occasions when things don’t go as planned, when situations become complex, or matches fall apart. For those instances, I wanted to create a sound source of information and a law firm that is dedicated to advocating for and guiding Surrogates to what is best for them and their families. In surrogacy arrangements, Intended Parents are responsible for hiring all the necessary professionals and paying them; often, Surrogates can perceive themselves (rationally so) as the party without anyone to turn to for guidance. Here at The Surrogate’s Corner, our goal is to be that source of support and hope when things don’t go according to plan. The apple never falls too far from the tree. I grew up in a family of lawyers: both my parents have been practicing fertility attorneys since 1978; my uncle went to law school and decided to pursue a career in insurance; my older brother also went to law school but opted for defense contracting instead. Kitchen table conversations were more like debates and it became evident quite early on that only solid and valid arguments would carry any water in my family.
