About Katherine "Kate" Jones.
Katherine "Kate" Jones is a fertility lawyer who helps intended parents, surrogates, donors, and families navigate the legal side of assisted reproduction. Her work focuses on surrogacy agreements, donor agreements, parentage, and the legal steps that need to happen before fertility treatment can move forward.
Kate's interest in fertility law is personal.
While in law school, she formed a close friendship with Lee, who later went through IVF treatment. Watching that process unfold — the uncertainty, the decisions that had to be made quickly, often without enough information — made one thing clear: the legal side of fertility treatment was its own burden, and most people were carrying it alone.
Kate also knows this process from the other side. She became a mother through surrogacy, and that experience shapes how she works with every client. She knows what it means to place your trust in a legal process at one of the most personal moments of your life, and she takes that seriously.
Handling the legal layer so you don't have to.
Kate's clients are building families through IVF, donor conception, surrogacy, and LGBTQ+ family-building pathways. Her job is to handle the legal layer so they do not have to figure it out as they go — what documents are needed, when, and why they matter.
She works closely with clinics and agencies, and is used to fitting into timelines that are already moving.
Most people come to Kate already mid-process. The legal questions are real, and the timing matters. If you are at that stage, a consultation is the right place to start.
