Seeking advice

Thursday, August 27, 2009

Sometimes people try to post comments in which they seek specific legal advice from me. I reject those posts.

The Australian Gay and Lesbian Law Blog is for the provision of general advice about related issues and not specific advice. Amongst other things, if you post a comment about your case, you could run foul of several secrecy laws, as well as revealing confidential information about yourself that you do not want the whole world to see.

If you want specific advice from me, then phone me on 617 3221 9544 or email me at spage@harringtonfamilylawyers.com. If your inquiry is within my area of expertise, I will repsond. If not, I will attempt to refer you on to someone who can help.

Cheers

Surrogacy Statistics Australia: Why Families Go Overseas

Surrogacy statistics: why so many go overseas

Surrogacy is intensely personal, but the numbers tell an important story about how difficult it can be for intended parents in Australia. The central statistic is striking: for every child born in Australia through surrogacy, about four are born overseas. That is not a small difference.
