Types of Surrogacy
- Traditional Surrogacy: The surrogate’s egg is fertilized, making her the biological mother. This type of surrogacy is less common and legally complex.
- Gestational Surrogacy: The surrogate carries an embryo created through IVF using the intended parent(s)’ or donor’s genetic material. She has no genetic connection to the child.
Our team assists in navigating these arrangements and drafting contracts tailored to your specific situation.
