The Global Healthcare Law Group, APC is a specialized law firm dedicated to surrogacy and egg donation law, with deep expertise in the complex and evolving field of global healthcare. Based in San Diego, California, we serve individuals, families, and healthcare organizations across the United States and internationally, providing expert legal counsel at every stage of their journey. Our practice sits at the crossroads of healthcare compliance, medical travel, and assisted reproduction law (ART law). Whether you are an individual navigating egg donation or surrogacy, a fertility clinic, or a medical tourism company seeking expert legal guidance, we bring deep industry knowledge, personal attention, and a genuine commitment to positive outcomes for everyone involved. *From medical travel facilitation to surrogacy agreements and healthcare corporate law, we provide the specialized expertise your situation demands, with clarity, care, and cross-border capability.* We guide intended parents, gestational carriers, and egg donors through every stage of the egg donation and surrogacy journey, from initial agreements and contract review to the legal establishment of parentage. Our approach is personal, proactive, and rooted in both surrogacy and healthcare law, giving every stakeholder a clearer understanding of their rights, responsibilities, and protections. We work with clients and agencies locally and around the globe, making the path to parenthood as smooth and secure as possible. Seeking healthcare abroad is an increasingly practical choice for individuals, employers, and self-insured health plans, but it comes with unique legal risks. We provide comprehensive legal support for medical tourism facilitators and their employer and individual clients, covering compliance, contract drafting, informed consent frameworks, liability protection, and patient safety protocols. Our goal is to ensure that every medical travel arrangement is legally sound, transparent, and built to protect all parties involved. We serve healthcare companies, providers, and innovators who need trusted legal counsel as they build, grow, or transform their operations. Our services span corporate structuring and governance, regulatory compliance, management services organizations (MSOs), provider practice formation, health and wellness ventures, and integrative medicine practices. Whether you are launching a new healthcare business or navigating complex transactions, we provide the strategic legal foundation your organization needs to operate with confidence. Kristen Armstrong is the founding attorney of The Global Healthcare Law Group with nearly two decades of experience at the intersection of global medicine, assisted reproduction, and healthcare law and compliance. Her practice was built on a conviction that access to quality healthcare, regardless of where in the world it is received, should be legally protected, clearly structured, and genuinely supported. Kristen’s dual focus on healthcare and surrogacy and egg donation law gives her clients a rare advantage: an attorney who understands not only the legal dimensions of their journey, but the medical and human stakes involved at every step. *"My background in healthcare law gives clients a unique perspective on how to mitigate risk, not just legally, but from a health, safety, and financial standpoint. That intersection is where I do my most meaningful work."* We specialize in international assisted reproductive technology (ART) law through a healthcare lens. Our comprehensive background in medical malpractice, medical tourism, and hospital and healthcare laws makes us a force when advocating our clients’ interests. As a result, intended parent, surrogate and egg donor clients benefit from expert counsel that spans borders, without ever losing the personal attention and responsiveness they deserve. Unlike ART attorneys who operate exclusively within family law, we work at the intersection of ART law and healthcare law. This unique combination means we understand the regulatory environments, the industry risks, and the human realities of the family building journey. As a result, our clients benefit from nearly two decades of highly-specialized knowledge applied directly to their case. We believe that access to quality healthcare, and the legal protections that come with it, should not be limited by geography or resources. The Global Healthcare Law Group was founded to make that belief a reality: supporting individuals, whether intended parents, egg donors, or gestational carriers as they navigate the ART world through a healthcare landscape that is increasingly global, complex, and consequential. Based in San Diego, California, The Global Healthcare Law Group provides specialized legal services in the areas of surrogacy law, egg donation, and global healthcare law. We work with clients across the United States and internationally, supporting intended parents, gestational carriers, and donors throughout every stage of the assisted reproductive journey. From drafting surrogacy and egg donation agreements to overseeing pre-birth orders and cross border considerations, our team ensures that each arrangement is legally sound, transparent, and fully protected. We measure the value of our work by the outcomes we help create. By guiding individuals and families through the complexities of assisted reproduction, we do more than provide legal services. We help build families and support life changing journeys with clarity, care, and integrity. - [PRACTICE AREAS](#) - [International & Domestic Surrogacy](/en/international-domestic-surrogacy) - [Medical Travel & Tourism](/en/medical-travel-tourism) - [Healthcare Business & Corporate Counsel](/en/healthcare-business) - [ABOUT US](/en/about) - [CONTACT](/en/contact) - [International & Domestic Surrogacy](/en/international-domestic-surrogacy) - [Medical Travel & Tourism](/en/medical-travel-tourism) - [Healthcare Business & Corporate Counsel](/en/healthcare-business) - [PRACTICE AREAS](#) - [International & Domestic Surrogacy](/en/international-domestic-surrogacy) - [Medical Travel & Tourism](/en/medical-travel-tourism) - [Healthcare Business & Corporate Counsel](/en/healthcare-business) - [ABOUT US](/en/about) - [CONTACT](/en/contact) - [International & Domestic Surrogacy](/en/international-domestic-surrogacy) - [Medical Travel & Tourism](/en/medical-travel-tourism) - [Healthcare Business & Corporate Counsel](/en/healthcare-business) --- ## URL: https://www.globalhealthcarelaw.com/protected-collection-item ### Title: Protected Page ### Page ID: 9411748 ### Content: In order to view the page, please enter the password below: --- ## URL: https://www.globalhealthcarelaw.com/reset-password-page ### Title: Reset password page ### Page ID: 9411749 ### Content: Reset Password Reset Password --- ## URL: https://www.globalhealthcarelaw.com/international-domestic-surrogacy ### Title: International & Domestic Surrogacy ### Page ID: 9412550 ### Content: # International & Domestic Surrogacy ## Building Families with Confidence ## How We Help ## Questions?

Kristen has been at the forefront of new breakthroughs in the healthcare industry since starting her legal practice. Her scholarship in the cutting-edge practice of Medical Travel has garnered the attention of the American Bar Association, which published her study on the concept as it related to healthcare proposals that at the time the Affordable Care Act was merely a campaign proposal. From this article, her passion for medical tourism and global healthcare flourished. She served as in-house counsel and compliance officer at the nation's leading medical travel company. While there, Kristen was a catalyst in the company achieving a comprehensive intellectual property portfolio centered around the business model that drives the medical travel market. Kristen's practice is concentrated in health law, transactions, and business and corporate law, with expertise in healthcare corporate structuring and governance, transactions and compliance, and medical malpractice. Kristen has extensive experience serving as in-house counsel to start-up and early-stage companies by managing all legal exposures and risks overseeing contract drafting, negotiation and execution, safeguarding corporate assets, and ensuring regulatory compliance on a federal and state level. In addition to collaborating with healthcare companies, her passion is being a part of the journey in the assisted reproductive technology process of her clients worldwide. Kristen represents clients in drafting legal agreements to be executed with gestational carriers and intended parents. She also represents parties engaged in egg, sperm and embryo donations.

Trusted legal counsel for medical tourism facilitators, self-insured employers, and providers navigating the global healthcare landscape. The globalization of healthcare has forced the traditional notion that people receive medical treatment close to home to be abandoned. Annually, millions of patients are crossing every foreign border to receive state-of-the-art medical treatments for classic ailments or experimental procedures for the most obscure conditions. Recognizing the significant cost savings, employers and individuals alike are participating in medical tourism. Employers add the benefit to their self-insured health plan. Individuals (uninsured and underinsured) contact medical tourism facilitators or venture on their own to receive procedures outside their homeland. When done properly, quality of care is never compromised. We offer over a decade of experience in the medical travel space.
