Description
Ontario's All Families Are Equal Act came into force in January 2017. It addressed discrimination providing greater family security to those relying on reproductive technologies or third parties to conceive a child. But not every change was controversy-free. Our presenters sift through them all, with a focus on best practices and challenges for the practitioner on issues of gestational surrogacy, compensation, representation of non-traditional families, plus much more.
- Learn the elements necessary for drafting reproductive agreements
- Understand the effects and implications of the All Families Are Equal Act
- Hear the latest issues involved in commercialization of surrogacy and gamete donation
- Review legislative compliance requirements and penalties for non-compliance
- Consider how to advise hospitals and clinics on reproductive law matters
