Being a surrogate mother is a life-altering event for you as well as a beautiful gift for another family. As a potential surrogate mother, you may wonder what legal protections will be in place for you. Luckily, if you are working with a respected surrogacy agency, you will receive expert legal knowledge and strong legal protection every step of the way. An ethical and experienced agency will ensure that your contract is simple to understand, not one-sided, and legally binding regarding your rights to compensation, confidentiality, parental rights, and medical decision-making.

Surrogacy laws vary from state to state, and this is where an informed agency will be a benefit to you. States have widely differing surrogacy cases, but an experienced agency can navigate the law so that you are protected and informed. The legal protection in place for surrogate mothers is meant to avoid confusion surrounding your preconceived agreement (like pre-birth or post-birth agreements), and to protect your health and well-being.
