Gestational Carrier Agreement
For parents, we will draft, negotiate, and finalize your Gestational Carrier Agreement with your surrogate. If you are the surrogate, we can work with you to carefully review your proposed Gestational Carrier Agreement and make any edits or changes that you feel are necessary. We will guide our clients through the contractual process and ensure that you are fully aware of the terms of your agreement and are comfortable with your match.
Egg/Sperm Donor (Gamete) Agreement
We can prepare your egg or sperm donor agreement with your donor, whether he/she is an anonymous donor, or a known donor. We will review it with you and ensure you understand the legal implications of your Gamete Donor Agreement.
Parentage Proceedings
Parentage proceedings are the legal cases that are filed in Family Court to establish the parents as the legal parents of the child. This includes the issuance of a Birth Certificate which includes the names of the parent(s). The type of court case(s) that are filed will depend on your specific circumstances, so it is important to consult with a surrogacy law specialist when establishing legal parentage.

We are here to help our clients understand their legal rights and obligations as they move through the surrogacy process.
