Surrogacy & Fertility Law
We understand that surrogacy is rarely a first option for couples seeking to have a family. Our primary concern is ensuring that parties seeking to enter into surrogacy arrangements are fully aware of their legal rights, and to make the process of obtaining the necessary legal information as seamless as possible.

Our team now enjoys a breadth of experience that enables Sayer Jones to put the interests of our clients at the forefront whilst having a key appreciation for the rights and responsibilities of all-important parties involved in assisted reproduction.
