Assisted Reproduction Lawyer New York, NY
Assisted reproduction law covers the full spectrum of family-building arrangements: sperm donation, egg donation, embryo donation, gestational surrogacy, establishment of legal parentage, and agreements addressing the disposition of embryos and genetic material that follow. Your third party reproductive agreement should define the rights and responsibilities of all parties before medical procedures occur, provide fertility clinics the documents they require to proceed, and provide an outline for your path to parenthood. A good agreement defines the rights and responsibilities of all parties and identifies the legal parents. A great agreement manages expectations of all parties and anticipates future potential issues so they can be resolved early and without conflict. This work is highly collaborative, bringing together intended parents, donors, surrogates, agencies, clinics, and storage facilities. Your assisted reproduction lawyer should be an advocate and a collaborative teammate.
Our reproductive lawyers begin by listening to your family building goals and discussing the steps in your family-building journey through gamete donation, surrogacy, and/or adoption, from drafting legal agreements to establishing parental rights to addressing the future disposition of your embryos.
In gamete donation agreements, our fertility law attorney addresses the rights and responsibilities of the donor and the intended parents, defines the boundaries of anonymous donation or directed donation, addresses communication preferences after birth (if any) and expectations surrounding the provision of medical information, and ensures each party’s legal status is protected while keeping the best interests of the future child at the forefront. In surrogacy agreements, we address medical decision-making, health insurance, lifestyle restrictions, compensation and reimbursements, estate planning documents, life insurance, the path to establishing legal parentage, delivery expectations, post-birth coordination, and more. Surrogacy contracts are nuanced and require great detail unique to the parties’ surrogacy arrangement. For judgments of parentage, our assisted reproduction attorneys prepare filings that confirm legal parentage at or before birth to reduce administrative hurdles. Our firm is experienced in handling the conflict of law issues that are innate in most third party reproductive arrangements, regardless of jurisdiction.
Communication with the team at Oleaga Law LLC will always be clear and transparent. You’ll receive plain-language explanations of each clause, a concise checklist of documents, a plan for each phase of your journey, and timely updates.

“Janene was referred to me for representation in parentage proceedings when I was a gestational surrogate earlier this year. I could not be more pleased with working with her, and feel so lucky we were referred to her! Not only was she exceedingly personable and kind, but she completed our portion of the documents quickly and professionally. She was very responsive whenever we contacted her or had a question. I would highly recommend her services and definitely plan to work with her again for my next gestational surrogacy journey.”
