A heartwarming surrogacy story on 60 Minutes this Sunday night

Thursday, September 10, 2015
I learnt the news a couple of days ago that clients of mine will feature on 60 Minutes on Sunday night.

The story will be about Claudia and Sonny Luca who were unable to have a baby, until Claudia’s mum, Antonietta came along and said that she would be the surrogate. Claudia, Sonny, Antonietta and Claudia’s dad Joe all feature as does the beautiful bouncing son and grandson Luciano.

It’s not the first mother/daughter surrogacy I’ve helped along the way, and I’m sure it won’t be the last, but it is a very touching and heartwarming story, with tears along the way, until joy!

It has been a privilege, as always, to help Claudia and Sonny achieve their dream to become parents and have a family.

Ironically, I will miss the story (aat least live) because when it is being broadcast I will be travelling back to Brisbane from Perth, after speaking about surrogacy to the Family Law Practitioners Association of Western Australia.

That is the picture emerging from the latest figures discussed here. It is a striking comparison, even allowing for the fact that the domestic and international figures measure different things. In the year… Read More »International Surrogacy Births Hit a New Record

Surrogacy law reform: what’s next after the ALRC inquiry

The Australian Law Reform Commission’s surrogacy inquiry could be an important moment for Australian families. Its report has been delivered to the Commonwealth Attorney-General and is due to be tabled in federal parliament. The question is not simply what the report recommends.
