We are experienced in advising on a range of issues which can arise in the field of fertility law and in helping clients to navigate the legal minefield in this area. For example:
- Storage and use of Embryos and Gametes
We can advise you through the process of providing your Consent for the use/storage of eggs, sperm or embryos and assist if any dispute arises about the use of the gametes and embryos or the consent provided.
- Import and export of Embryos and Gametes
There are strict rules in place with regard to the import and export of Embryos and Gametes to and from the UK. We can provide advice and guidance in this area.
- Posthumous Conception
This is where you use the gametes or embryo of somebody who has passed away to conceive. This is a complex area, and we can provide advice and guidance.
- Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority Regulation
We can advise and assist you through the complex regulations which govern fertility treatment and law in the UK and consider the options and your position.
We often advise on technical questions which arise with regard to issues surrounding fertility treatment, assisted reproduction and the law which are not limited to the above. This can include making representations to fertility clinics on your behalf or challenging decisions which have been made. Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us to discuss how we may help you further.
