Legal Advice for Surrogates

Legal Advice for Surrogates

Here at the Family Village, we act for surrogates too!

Like intended parents, it is necessary for surrogates to also obtain legal advice on surrogacy arrangements prior to entering into surrogacy. This involves two lawyers, one representing the intended parents and one representing the surrogates.

How we can help

If you are not yet part of a surrogacy team and just want to have a chat about whether surrogacy is right for you, you can book a free initial consultation with Sally (our resident surrogate) or Katie (our lawyer) to talk through your options and see if surrogacy is something you want to pursue.

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.
