About The Family Village
The Family Village was founded by our leading Lawyer, Katie. Katie navigated her way through many years of IVF treatments (both the ups and the downs) to create her family. Unfortunately, after the birth of her second child, carrying her own children was no longer an option. Together with her husband, she went on a 5-year journey to find a surrogate. Their precious son Vinnie was born via surrogacy in 2022.
With a passion to assist and support others through their journey in creating a family, Katie established The Family Village. With 16 years legal experience, Katie provides legal advice and services, education, support and guidance to those on their journey to create a family, particularly in surrogacy arrangements.
Katie and her surrogate Sally, work side by side at The Family Village to support surrogates and intended parents alike. They have the benefit of walking in your shoes, from both sides of the story, which is a valuable asset.
