Amanda Esther Troxler

Amanda was my legal representation for two egg donor cycles, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. IVF is an emotional and often overwhelming journey, filled with uncertainties that can make the process feel like navigating uncharted territory. Throughout it all, Amanda was a steadfast source of ...support, offering not just expert legal guidance but also genuine compassion and reassurance. Her ability to explain complex legal and procedural details with clarity made everything feel far more manageable. She was incredibly responsive, kind, and accommodating—seamlessly incorporating all our needs into the contract while working within tight timelines. Her calming presence and thorough approach made a world of difference. What truly sets Amanda apart is her firsthand experience as a former egg donor. This unique perspective allowed her to anticipate concerns I wouldn’t have even known to ask about, ensuring that every aspect of the process was thoughtfully addressed. Working with Amanda and her team was an absolute pleasure—everyone was friendly, professional, and deeply committed to making the experience as smooth as possible. I wholeheartedly recommend her services and would not hesitate to work with her again, especially as we look ahead to our surrogacy journey.

I have nothing, but amazing things to say about Mrs. Troxler.. I have worked with her first hand for several years during my IVF journey and have been able to depend on her every step of the way! Not only is she kind and genuine, but she’s helpful and knowledgeable.. very educated in her field! She h...as always gone above and beyond for any questions or explanations I may have had! Has always met my needs to say the least.. I absolutely love her and when I say this woman is on top of things I mean it!

As a first time surrogate I had a contract to review and sign, I asked many questions and did my best to catch any mistakes. Now I want to do an Addendum due to learning more and I’m being told it won’t happen before we even made the addendum. There’s sections where my compensation for surrobabe deli...very isn’t even mentioned, only compensation for spouse during delivers. One section says I’ll get compensation for anything over 40 miles and the next section says I’ll get compensated for anything over 50 miles. One section says I’ll get paid within 5 days for one thing and the next says I’ll get paid with 14 days for another thing. It also says I’ll get paid in 10 monthly instillations after heartbeat confirmation at which point I will already be 7 weeks pregnant. Meaning there are only 8 months left in the pregnancy so 10 months is making so that I have to trust I’ll get paid the left over 2 months in a timely manner after the intended parents have their child although there’s no due by date for the 2 remaining monthly payments either. I am having a terrible experience and as a lawyer you would think she would know better than to accept a contract with these things. It is her job to know, I trusted her which is why I went ahead and signed after 3 times of back and forth with the contract between myself, my lawyer and the Intended parents and their lawyer.

I worked with Steven Lazarus' law firm & hired Amanda Troxler to represent me for a surrogacy contract & journey. Amanda's ability to communicate contracts to someone who was very unfamiliar was incredibly helpful. She was patient and thorough. She took time to explain stipulations and I never felt r...ushed or unimportant. Sadly, the end of my journey came with complications from the parents I carried the child for. Less than 48 hours after delivering the baby, I was in emotional distress late at night. I called Steven Lazarus' line and took down the emergency number he had listed. I didn't expect a person to answer, but he did. He was incredibly kind, listened to me and promised to send a note to Amanda and ask for her to reach me. At 8pm that night (only an hour later) I received a text from Amanda informing me she would call that evening - INCREDIBLE! She did call and listened and guided me through what I needed to do. She easily could have called me the next morning, but she showed that she is compassionate, empathetic and incredibly kind. When you're being represented for an adoption, surrogacy or family matter, these are characteristics that are important. It reminds us of our humanity and why we enter the line of work that we do. This is not a law firm interested in only monetary value, they are interested in helping others and making a difference in people's lives. Without ANY hesitation, I would recommend this firm to anyone I loved and cared for.
