What our clients say

Lisa has been tremendously compassionate, empathetic and transparent in her communications with us as intended parents through surrogacy. She is a fierce advocate for fair and inclusive rights, both for IPs and surrogates, and is committed to educating clients and colleagues alike. A rare gem in an often maddening field, and someone you can trust when you're at your most vulnerable.

Lisa provided us with expert service in relation to receiving an expedited birth certificate following a surrogacy journey. Lisa was always courteous and respectful. We would highly recommend Lisa for any work related to surrogacy.

As intended parents, our surrogacy journey was magical yet challenging, and we knew nothing about the legal process. Lisa answered our questions patiently, replied to our emails on time, and addressed our concerns before drafting the contract. She even helped us find a lawyer for our surrogate in another province.

Lisa is extremely knowledgeable about the surrogacy process, and made the legal portion simple for us. It was clear how much she knew about the laws regarding surrogacy in Canada. She was thorough and detail-oriented in the contract, which I appreciated.

Lisa made us feel that she respected and honoured our decisions and the family we were planning to create. She celebrated our family and seemed genuinely happy to play a role in it — she even gave us a gift when our daughters were born, and sent a card on their first birthday.

I engaged Lisa to assist in drawing up a surrogacy contract. She was very helpful, insightful, and empathetic — I felt she took the time to understand my needs, so when it came time to review the contract, I had no changes or edits. She made the process seamless and meaningful.

We had to finish our contract in a very short timeframe, and Lisa's service was fast enough to meet our expectations — she even worked one weekend night to complete our legal contract. Very patient and friendly. We really appreciate Lisa's help.

Her broad knowledge of law coupled with her background in psychology were exceedingly beneficial to my case, and helped me achieve results that surpassed my expectations. She is trustworthy, sincere, hard-working, approachable, and intuitive.
