Surrogacy, IVF, and Donor Agreements for Same‑Sex Couples in New York - Juan Luciano
From Juan Luciano Divorce Lawyer – Surrogacy, IVF, and Donor Agreements for Same‑Sex Couples in New York takes you inside the legal journey of LGBTQ+ families building their future in New York. In this episode, we’ll unpack the role of the Child‑Parent Security Act (CPSA) and why its shift toward intent‑based parentage matters so deeply for same‑sex couples. We’ll also explore the defining difference between gestational surrogacy and traditional surrogacy, and how the Surrogate’s Bill of Rights establishes protections for all parties involved.
Next, we dive into the contracts that form the foundation of a secure family structure: the egg and embryo donor agreement, the Gestational Surrogacy Agreement (GSA), and the Judgment of Parentage (JoP). For same‑sex couples using assisted reproduction, these aren’t optional—they’re essential. We’ll walk through how known donors differ from non‑identified donors via sperm banks, the risks and opportunities of each, and the critical importance of a properly drafted donor agreement.
Then we’ll cover IVF and embryo disposition agreements, especially how the landmark Kass v. Kass decision influences what happens if couples separate. We’ll discuss the contractual approach to frozen embryos, what clinics require, and how proactive legal planning can protect your future. Plus: why having both names on a birth certificate isn’t always enough, and when a Second‑Parent Adoption (SPA) or an Acknowledgment of Parentage (AOP) might be the stronger route.
Finally, we’ll speak with family law attorney Juan Luciano about how same‑sex couples can protect their parental rights across state lines, secure their children’s legal standing, and build a family with clarity and confidence. If you’re starting your family‑building journey—or supporting someone who is—this episode gives you thoughtful, practical insight into the intersection of law, love, and parenthood.
