What Surrogates Need Most: Legal Protection and Advocacy

Legal agreements can feel overwhelming, especially for first-time surrogates. What surrogates want is someone who will stand beside them—who will make sure their rights are protected and their voice is heard.
Agencies play a vital role here. Ensuring that surrogates have independent legal counsel, that contracts are explained in plain language, and that surrogates never feel rushed to sign—these steps build long-term trust and reduce the risk of conflict later.
Legal protection isn’t just about terms; it’s about being respected as an equal party in the process.
