In Illinois, a surrogacy agreement is a legally binding contract required under the Gestational Surrogacy Act to outline the rights and responsibilities of intended parents and the gestational surrogate. The agreement must cover issues like compensation, medical decisions, and parental rights, and all parties must have independent legal counsel. Without a proper contract, disputes can arise, jeopardizing the surrogacy process. Baumert Law specializes in creating thorough, compliant surrogacy agreements to protect everyone involved.
