The Importance of Working With a Reproductive Attorney for Your Fertility Treatment

Working with a reproductive attorney is crucial for your peace of mind as you navigate the fertility treatment journey. While this is true for all fertility journeys, this is especially important for intended parents who are using surrogates, sperm donors, or egg donors. This is because having a reproductive attorney who is representing you can help protect your legal rights and interests as an intended parent. They can do this by drafting contracts, ensuring compliance with state laws, and navigating potential complications to establish legal parentage of the child, especially in complex situations like cross-border fertility treatments.

A closer look at how a reproductive attorney will help you throughout your journey as an intended parent includes the following aspects:

• Parental rights protection: In cases involving third-party reproduction, like with sperm donation or gestational surrogacy, a reproductive attorney can help establish legal parentage. This process ensures you are recognized as the child’s legal parent regardless of who else may have been involved in their conception. 
• State law expertise: Your reproductive attorney will be well-versed in state laws governing assisted reproductive technology, also known as ART, and can advise you on the legal implications of your chosen treatment plan in the specific jurisdiction that affects you. 
• Dispute resolution: Of course it is one’s hope that the fertility journey goes off without a hitch. However, if issues arise during the fertility treatment process, a reproductive attorney can help mediate these issues or represent you in legal proceedings. 
• Guidance on complex situations: When you work with a trusted reproductive attorney, they can provide you with guidance and knowledge on complex situations like international surrogacy, donor screening, and genetic testing.

Regardless of the unique factors of your fertility treatment journey, it is important that you have someone on your side who can help you through the legal complexities surrounding different aspects of the fertility journey. Having a reproductive attorney on your side can take stress off of your shoulders and allow you to focus on the exciting prospect of building a family and welcoming a child into the world.
