Marla is a great lawyer. She helped all the way on our adventure . My husband and I have a baby using surrogacy and we are not very good english speaker. She made everything easy and clear for us. She was really on our side all the time, and whatever the time. She answer very fast to all our question...s and is very human as she knows very well what we were going through. We can only warmly thank her for all she does for us. Great lawyer and great person.

Super Helpful

Recently, while trying to find a lawyer to draw up a contract for our gestational surrogacy journey Marla was recommended to us by The Florida Institute of Reproductive Medicine (FIRM). I called several lawyers, but immediately the patience Marla had made me decide to choose her. She was very patient... and knowledgeable. Marla was also able to get us in contact with a lawyer in Maryland for my surrogate within a day. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, patient, knowledgeable lawyer who knows their laws around this process.

Loved working with Marla!

Marla has amazing communication, attendance, and dependability. She always responded fast and helped with any questions I had. I highly recommend Marla to others based on my experience as a client.

The Highest Recommendation

At the end of a very long battle with infertility, my wife and I entered the legal phase of our gestational surrogacy arrangement with the same concerns as we had every step of the process to that point. We didn't know what to expect, what we should be concerned about, or how to make sure that we we...re protected. As an attorney myself, I wanted to make sure that when our child was born, we could concentrate on our family without the fear of legal concerns. Marla exceeded all of our expectations. She was knowledgable. She was compassionate. She was thorough. She was professional. And she was kind. Looking back, we were vulnerable and afraid before we met Marla. We lived in Chicago. Our gestational carrier lived in Florida. It sounds like hyperbole, but the distance didn't concern us...because we had Marla. Never once, did we feel like we weren't in the best hands possible with Marla. She tailored our agreement based on our expectations, she negotiated on our behalf and, most importantly, she was always one step ahead in securing our legal parentage. My wife and I will be forever grateful for the work of the medical professionals, surrogacy agency, and our selfless gestational carrier. But, we will never forget the calm and reassuring legal hand of Marla Neufeld. We will always remember her as a significant and irreplaceable reason why we have a family. We only wish that there was a louder way to recommend Marla. She is clearly among the very best in her field.

Highly Recommend

If you are looking for an attorney to assist you with the Surrogacy process, then Marla is the perfect attorney. She helped us with all legal aspects in the process of having our miracle baby. She was very responsive, knowledgeable, caring and helpful with everything we needed from her during this ...time. I highly recommend Marla Neufeld Esq!
