Media callout for LGBTIQ parents

Media callout for LGBTIQ parents

There is a media callout for any LGBTIQ parents who conceive a child together (either in a donor or co-parenting arrangement). The emphasis will be on positive stories, although trickier issues will also be covered, including negotiating the level of involvement of a donor, drawing up agreements before conception and how parents navigate through a breakup.

If you are interested in telling your story to the media, please email me spage@harringtonfamilylawyers.com and I’ll connect you with the media outlet.
