What Laws Are There Around Surrogacy And Other Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) Methods In Oregon?
Oregon has no laws that restrict surrogacy, although there are specific rules regarding responsibility for children conceived through assisted reproductive techniques. Instead, some agreed-upon best practices are used to protect the rights of everybody involved.
How Does The Surrogacy Process Work In Oregon?
Typically, an Oregon surrogacy contract is negotiated between the intended parents and their surrogate with the help of attorneys. Issues that need to be addressed include:
- The rights and responsibilities of each party
- The liability of each party for potential risks
- The compensation that the surrogate will receive
- How pre-birth orders will establish the legal parents’ rights
In addition, agreements should address complex issues that may arise, like the need for selective reduction or termination of a pregnancy for any reason. Once the agreements are in place, the surrogacy can move forward.
Who Can Our Oregon ART Attorneys Assist?
Our surrogacy attorneys help anybody who is involved in a reproductive process or surrogacy journey, including:
- Intended parents
