Assisted Reproduction and Estate Planning in a Post-Dobbs Landscape
The use of assisted reproduction and developing medical technologies to create or expand a family has necessitated a rapidly evolving area of law. The Supreme Court’s 2022 decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization has prompted states to propose or institute new laws surrounding abortion, surrogacy, and the viability of an embryo or fetus, leaving things in a state of flux. Numerous cases challenging these laws are also winding their way through the court system.
