Episode Overview

Dividing property during a divorce is one thing. But what happens when a couple has frozen embryos, and both spouses disagree about what should happen to them?

In this episode of the Oxendine Law Podcast, Jarrod Oxendine and Christine Palmer explore the complicated legal and personal questions surrounding IVF, frozen embryos, and divorce.

Drawing from their own cases, they discuss how fertility clinic agreements can influence what happens to frozen embryos, why some judges may decline to make a decision, and how couples can reach agreements outside of court.

They also examine the potential legal implications of using frozen embryos after divorce, including future questions about parental rights and responsibilities.

It's a sensitive topic that shows why some of the most difficult decisions in divorce go far beyond dividing assets.
