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 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.

I was referred to her colleague but when I ran into problems with him, he passed me off to Amanda -- truly, this was a blessing in disguise and she was my saving grace. Amanda was professional, patient and knowledgeable. She took the time to understand my issues (and help me with the changes) on a co...okie cutter/template contract that her colleague had provided to me. What I needed wasn't very complicated or problematic and in fact most reasonable people in my position would have required the same. Amanda took over and we were done in a matter of minutes -- literally. She may not be as seasoned as her colleague but she definitely is a million times better at legal representation - on all levels! Highly recommend.
