Firm Information

Overview

At the Law Office of Melissa L. Torto, LLC, in Boston, Massachusetts, we believe that while parenting is hard, becoming a parent shouldn’t be. Focused exclusively on family-building law, our firm helps clients navigate egg donation, embryo donation and surrogacy journeys with complete legal clarity. We craft comprehensive agreements tailored to your unique path, providing empathetic guidance every step of the way so you can focus entirely on the excitement of building your growing family.

Surrogacy is a beautiful journey, but without proper legal guidance, intended parents can easily drown in paperwork while exposing donors and surrogates to serious liability risks. You shouldn't have to face complex medical law alone. We handle every legal detail, contract and safeguard with absolute precision. By taking the legal stress off your shoulders, we give you time to stop worrying about paperwork and start preparing a happy, healthy home for your baby.

Personalized attention means every family-building journey receives direct, tailored guidance specific to your path, whether through egg donation, embryo donation or surrogacy. Instead of navigating these sensitive arrangements through generic legal templates, your contracts and parental rights are crafted with individual care. We listen closely to your specific hopes and concerns, communicating clearly at every step so you feel completely supported and confident as you move forward to protect your future family.

To make getting started as simple and stress-free as possible, we provide complimentary initial consultations to discuss your family-building plans. We also offer secure virtual appointments, allowing you to connect with us conveniently from the comfort of your home. Whether you need to accommodate a busy schedule or manage long-distance surrogacy arrangements, our flexible consultation options ensure efficient legal counsel is always accessible whenever and wherever you need it most.

    I’ve had the absolute pleasure of working with Melissa on three surrogacy journeys, and she is everything you could hope for in an attorney—and more. She has a remarkable ability to take what can feel like a daunting process, simplify it, and make it genuinely enjoyable. Personable, knowledgeable, and deeply trustworthy, she is lightning-fast, exceptionally sharp, and truly a joy to work with.

    Working with Melissa through our surrogacy and parentage journey was a great experience. She was attentive, has great attention to detail, is empathetic and very responsive. She answered our questions patiently and was a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend her for your family/parentage needs.

    I have worked for years and on dozens (hundreds maybe?) of cases with Ms. Torto. We have always been on the opposide side of the vs, but I can tell you that it is the pleasure of my life to work with a professional with the abilities and ethical standards which she embodies. I highly recommend working with Ms. Torto if you're fortunate enough to have the opportunity.
