SURROGACY - Kim K has done it, Khole Kardashian and Tristan Thompson were considering it, and one of Andrea’s former high school teachers and her husband went through it. As technology advances, surrogacy is becoming an option not only for the uber-rich and famous, but also for dentists, lawyers, teachers, and other normal people. Your favorite legal A-Team dive into what surrogacy is, the different types, explain the terms you need to know and give an overview of Texas law regarding surrogacy. Specifically, A&A describe the risks if you go the surrogacy route without a contract known as a “Gestational Agreement” (spoiler alert - the surrogate can legally change her mind and keep the baby!), and then contrast that with the peace of mind a Gestational Agreement provides (intended parents will get their baby, regardless if the surrogate changes her mind). In true legal A-Team fashion, the pair breaks down what you need to have in a validated Gestational Agreement in TX in order to make sure that the intended parents will be able to safely and securely take their bundle of joy home. If you or a friend are considering surrogacy, this is the perfect episode to tune in to so you know what questions to ask your lawyer when you decide to pursue a Gestational Agreement.
