Safeguarding Rights Of Donors, Surrogates Or Intended Parents

Reproductive Law Attorney

When you want to become a parent and are unable to do it naturally, it is comforting to know there are options. There are many considerations involved in the processes surrounding surrogacy and donation. You need the advice of an experienced San Diego family formation attorney.

I am Erin O’Kane Allen, a California lawyer practicing solely in the area of reproductive law. I know the intricacies of surrogacy law and I am familiar with common issues that occur during the course of a surrogacy. Whether you are an intended parent or a potential surrogate, egg donor or sperm donor, I can guide you through the process.

An experienced reproductive law attorney serving clients from around the world:
If you are an intended parent planning to come to California to take advantage of our progressive laws regarding reproductive rights, call me to arrange a free consultation. I have been working with international clients for years and understand what international laws may apply to your surrogacy arrangement.

Helping Families Grow By Providing Caring Legal Representation

Laws regarding surrogacy, egg donations and sperm donations vary by state. In some states, surrogacy is illegal or surrogacy contracts are unenforceable. The laws outside the United States also vary widely. While my practice is based in California, I provide assistance to people who seek out surrogates who live in and give birth in California.

I use my knowledge to help individuals and families with all aspects of reproductive law, including:

  • Becoming a surrogate, carrier or donor: Are you considering becoming a surrogate or donor of sperm, eggs or embryos? Sharing the gift of life with a prospective parent is a generous and admirable choice. I can walk you through the legal process and make sure your rights are protected.
  • Becoming a parent through nontraditional means: I help intended parents pursue their dreams of starting a family through surrogacy, embryo donation and other nontraditional paths. I also help same-sex couples and single parents.
