10 Oct 2016 What is the purpose of a Surrogacy Agreement?
Surrogacy agreements are the first stage in a two-step process. The purpose of the surrogacy agreement is to allow all parties to state their intentions and their responsibilities to one another. The agreement will clearly state that the surrogate does not intend to parent any resulting child(ren) and does not wish to have physical or legal custody of any resulting child(ren). The surrogacy agreement will also define the rights and responsibilities of the intended parents.
