Interstate Traditional Surrogacy Case

We retained Seth Grob for a complex interstate traditional surrogacy case, and we couldn't be happier with his representation. Seth had excellent knowledge of the various jurisdictions in Colorado and was able to think critically and creatively about how we might proceed with our case to ensure t...hat we could become parents through our chosen method, traditional surrogacy. Traditional surrogacy is especially legally complex since the surrogate is also the egg donor (meaning the surrogate is genetically related to the child). Seth was able to walk us through the various ways our scenario might play out. For instance, he was able to explain that in one county in Colorado we might be able to obtain a pre-birth order, but in another county it might be better to take the route of a second parents adoption for me (the legal but not biological mother). Because our surrogacy was interstate, with our surrogate a resident of New Hampshire and then moving to Georgia part way through the process, Seth was able to call on his professional network of attorneys in those states to find someone to represent our surrogate. He consulted with those attorneys to understand and communicate to us the nuances of each jurisdiction, which he then explained to us clearly. Not only is Seth's knowledge of the law in this area quite thorough, and not only is his professional network wide, he is also prompt with his replies to our questions, organized with the details, and responsive to our concerns. He’s a consummate professional who also understand how emotional this field of law is for the intended parents. Thanks to Seth’s representation, we are now the proud legal parents of our baby boy and will happily recommend him to anyone who might benefit from his services.

Best in Colorado

We hired Seth to assist us in adopting our daughter from Hawaii. She is marshallese. We had heard he is the best in colorado particularly with our situation. I was very pleased with how promptly and efficiently everything was handled. Both Seth and his assistant were very easy to work with and would ...get back to any emails within 24 hours. Usually less than 3 hours. Once, when my kids were all asleep in the car i called and asked the paralegal if she could meet me at the car for some paperwork and she did! They understand and value your time and family.

Excellent Attorney!

Seth was a pleasure to work with. He is knowledgeable, has exceptional follow through and attention to detail. Seth is always professional but firm with expectations. An excellent balance of grace and justice. Most importantly he always had our Child's best interest as his focus. I would highly recom...mend consulting Seth with any concerns in cases involving adoption and family law.

AMAZING LAWYER

My husband and i highly recommend Mr. Grob and his office! He made every step of the way an easy and understanding process.

He is a lawyer who actually cares about the out come and the b...est interest of our son! He has a determination to win and that's exactly what he did when we went to our hearing! Mr. Grob prepared us for court which helped take away any anxiety that my husband and i had. Mr. Grob and his team are absolutely the best and definitely the team you want on your side! We can't thank him enough for helping us make our family complete!

Excellent representation

Seth Grob provided us with excellent representation in a very challenging case. Seth's knowledge of applicable law is extensive and he has a great rapport with adoption agencies, magistrates, judges and other counsel. Even more importantly, Seth is patient, he listens and spends as much time as my... husband and I needed discussing issues. He came up with creative ideas and solutions, and encouraged us to keep going when we felt defeated. Seth is also empathetic. Our case involved an emotional roller coaster and he was always available and sympathetic. His advice was spot on and the resolution he helped devise to our problem changed our life. I can say that without a doubt, my husband and I would not have been able to achieve success without Seth's assistance. We are very grateful to Seth for all his help. He is the consummate professional and I highly recommend him.
