Guidance Through The Overwhelming World Of Fertility Law

Last updated on March 18, 2024

Would-be parents who are considering assisted reproductive technology (ART) face unique concerns that other prospective parents do not. For starters, the law regarding ART is incredibly complex and varies from state to state. Your best chance at navigating these laws successfully to start your own family is to have a knowledgeable fertility attorney on your side.

We can help you. At Blacha Law Office, LLC, we provide hands-on legal guidance for individuals and families in the Naperville and Joliet areas.

To us, fertility law is not an abstract issue but a concrete one that could affect the rest of your life. We are unwavering in our advocacy as we help you build your family.

What To Know About The Illinois Family Building Act

ART is notoriously expensive. Fortunately, under the Illinois Family Building Act of 1991, women who have certain group insurance plans and HMOs can receive coverage for a spectrum of fertility treatments. Women who find themselves unable to carry a pregnancy to full term or unable to conceive after having unprotected sex for one year may qualify.

Unfortunately, many insurance providers deny coverage to women who qualify for it. Our lawyers can help you understand whether you qualify for coverage under the Family Building Act and, if so, how much. If your insurer has not offered the coverage promised in your policy and by the law, we will aggressively work to get the coverage you need.
