Cutting-Edge Fertility Law and Collaborative Reproduction Services

Assisted reproductive technology offers remarkable pathways to parenthood, yet it requires rigorous contractual frameworks to secure parental rights. If you need to hire an attorney to protect your reproductive journey, partners Rachel C. Loftspring and Ellen Essig provide seasoned counsel across all facets of fertility law:

• Gestational surrogacy agreements: Drafting and negotiating comprehensive carrier contracts, escrow terms, and medical decision-making protocols.
• Parentage orders and birth orders: Securing vital pre-birth and post-birth declaratory judgments to ensure intended parents are named directly on legal birth certificates.
• Gamete and embryo donation agreements: Formulating precise contracts for egg, sperm, and embryo donors that clarify legal intent and waive donor parental claims.
• LGBTQ family formation: Securing confirmatory second-parent adoptions and parentage orders to guarantee equal parental protections for same-sex couples.
• International surrogacy representation: Assisting foreign intended parents with United States reproductive clinics, consular processing, and passport documentation.

Strategic Representation in Divorce and Marital Dissolution

When marital transitions arise, the firm family law litigators help clients navigate high-asset divorces, division of complex business interests, retirement accounts, and spousal support determinations. Recognizing that protracted litigation takes a heavy emotional toll on families, attorneys Ross Evans and Danielle Levy emphasize collaborative divorce and mediation while maintaining formidable courtroom capabilities when litigation is necessary.

Protecting Parental Rights, Custody, and Private Adoption

Safeguarding children remains central to every family matter. The legal team advises parents on shared parenting plans, legal custody disputes, visitation schedules, and child support calculations.
