LGBTQIA+ singles and couples looking for a surrogate or donor turn to us
Raising a child is one of the greatest joys of any family.
At the Law Offices of Robert T. Terenzio, building a family comes first.
For LGBTQIA+ individuals and couples, surrogacy and gamete sharing can present many unsuspected events. There are many paths to parenthood, ranging from egg donation or sharing to sperm donation to co-maternity to embryo donation to surrogacy. The Law Offices of Robert T. Terenzio is committed to helping LGBTQIA+ individuals and couples achieve the family envisioned by listening to needs and desires and designing a pathway to parentage.
Understanding Your Options As A Same-Sex Couple
Recent decades have seen remarkable achievements in reproductive medicine. With the assistance of a surrogate mother, egg donor and/or sperm donor, same-sex couples can and do become biological parents. Depending on your State or home country, there may be a legal nuance that should be addressed at the very onset of your journey at the contracting stage. The Law Offices of Robert T. Terenzio is happy to consult with your personal attorney so as to confirm your legal parentage regardless of the State or Country you reside.
Any person, single or coupled, can use a surrogate. While single and coupled men will require an egg donor, and single or coupled women will have access to egg donors when their infertility is ovarian based, single or coupled women will need a sperm donor to create embryos. The Law Offices of Robert T. Terenzio has vast experience with gamete donors, from an agency, a relative or friend. Each source comes with its own legal challenge and response to affirm your legal parentage.
A child of a same-sex couple will be the genetic child of only one member of the couple. To cut off any question of legal parentage, custody and authority, we will prosecute a second parent adoption when asked. The administration of such an adoption may require a home study, including a biography, financial report and letters of support from family, friends and professional acquaintances.

"If we have more law firms like the Law Offices of Robert T. Terenzio, it would help more parents to have their beautiful baby and complete their family dreams. Thanks very much to Robert for helping us complete our family."
