Legal - ART Attorneys
Family Forward Surrogacy works only with attorneys experienced in the Practice of Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) Law. ART law is not determined at the federal level, but rather differs greatly from state to state. FFS works closely with ART attorneys throughout the country who are well versed in the specific statutes and case law that apply in their specific jurisdictions. These attorneys draft surrogacy agreements using language that takes in to account the specific requirements of the states in which they work. These attorneys also advise FFS clients with regard to obtaining Pre or Post Birth Orders, second parent adoptions, and/or post-birth adoptions required to ensure that the Intended Parents will be able to have full legal parental rights to their children born through surrogacy.
