Surrogacy, relationship breakdown and modern families

A first-of-its-kind case, in which Louisa Ghevaert acted for the intended mother of twins born in India in 2010. This case marks a legal first in the treatment of blended families in the UK following assisted reproduction, divorce, re-marriage, serious allegations of domestic violence and abuse as well as the legal status and identity of two surrogate born children, their biological, intended and social parents and arrangements for the children’s care and upbringing.
