At Louisa Ghevaert Associates, we understand the importance of children and family and how they influence people’s lives, wishes and decision-making.

Changing social attitudes and the rapid uptake of on-demand services has lead to growing numbers of modern families encompassing: assisted reproduction, sperm and egg and embryo donation, co-parenting, known donation, surrogacy and posthumous conception. We also understand that modern families have complex dynamics and different forms including: solo, same-sex, heterosexual, transgender and blended families.

However, fertility and modern family law continues to be out-paced by medical and genomic technology and people’s expectations and wishes. The law is complex and it can create unintended legal issues and problems. This can leave parents, children, surrogates, donors and families without legal security or peace of mind.

We know it is not always easy to understand the legal issues or identify the need for specialist fertility and family law advice. We also know that building and safeguarding a modern family can require people to deal with sensitive and deeply personal issues. We are supportive, caring and open-minded. Our specialist legal services help empower people to make informed decisions, place family creation and life on a firm legal basis and deliver peace of mind.

At Louisa Ghevaert Associates, we are committed to supporting the creation and protection of modern families. We provide forward-thinking and innovative legal advice and solutions. We have preeminent and in-depth knowledge and expertise in fertility and family law and cases with a genetic aspect. We provide tailored legal services to meet individual needs and wishes, operating at the forefront of fertility and modern family law and genomics in the UK and internationally.
