NJ Assisted Reproductive Technology Attorneys Protect Your Rights

Discreet legal representation from New Providence lawyers for consumers of fertility services

As reproductive technology advances, more couples are turning to assisted reproduction as a means to parenthood. Laws in most states do not adequately address the legal standing of intended parents, surrogates, ovum (egg) donors and sperm donors, so it’s important to seek skilled representation when pursuing this avenue. The attorneys at Stoddard Law have 2017 years of experience working with couples throughout to realize their dreams of raising a child. We understand the complex legal matters that are associated with assisted reproduction law and are on the forefront of this emerging field.

Comprehensive counsel for couples seeking help

It is important to protect your financial and emotional interests by ensuring that legal documents and details involved with assisted reproduction are properly handled. Our firm can prepare forms and contracts for egg and sperm donations, obtain pre-birth court orders and establish legal parentage in surrogacy matters, and handle surrogacy contracts for intended parents and surrogate mothers.

Trusted advocates drafting sound legal agreements

Many of the legal issues involved in assisted reproduction involve a third party, so it is essential that legal agreements with donors, the surrogate mother and other involved parties are specific and sound. Our attorneys draft the following legal documents:

• Pre-birth orders or traditional surrogacy agreements, which are signed before a pregnancy between a couple and the surrogate mother. These agreements state that the surrogate will give up parental and custody rights to the child. In traditional surrogacy, the surrogate provides the egg and is impregnated with the intended father’s sperm./li>
• Gestational surrogacy agreements, which are agreements between a couple and a surrogate mother who is not the biological mother of the child. In gestational surrogacy, the child is carried to term by the surrogate after an embryo — usually formed with the intended parents’ sperm and egg — is implanted in the surrogate’s uterus.
• Adoption documents, which allow a second parent to legally adopt and have legal custody of a child carried by a surrogate.
• Other important documents according to state adoption and surrogacy laws

Our attorneys place a premium on providing quality legal services with a personal touch to couples and families in . We understand the pressing desire to have a family and can help you make sure that a child brought into your family through assisted reproduction is truly yours through detailed surrogacy agreements and other valid legal documents.
