Members of the Melbourne Family Law bar invited Melissa Averett of Averett Family Law to present again this year at their annual conference which was held in Hoi An, Vietnam. Averett was joined by Mark Hanna, of Mark Hanna Lawyers from Sydney, Australia. The presentation, titled Every Sperm is Sacred, explored the complex legal and ethical issues surrounding commercial surrogacy in Australia and the U.S. and the need for regulation to protect the children, the surrogates and the intended parents.
