Product Description
Product Description
Adoption and assisted reproductive technology (ART) are wonderful ways to build a family, but each path requires legal counsel. In order to help clients, you must be able to advise them about the ins and outs of adoption and counsel them to make wise decisions through the ART process. If you are interested in expanding your practice, this is the program for you!
This program discusses how to ensure that a child is legally free for adoption, what kinds of adoption are available, and determining what is best for your clients. The expert faculty reviews what you need to know about the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) and the Interstate Compact for the Placement of Children (ICPC), as well as how to draft open adoption agreements and ensure their enforceability. The program also explores the world of assisted reproductive technology law including egg donation, gestational surrogacy, and parentage issues. The panel covers the basics, provides you with the information you need to avoid the pitfalls, and answers your questions.
