Looking for an Athens Surrogacy Attorney?
As you begin your surrogacy journey, you’ll hear about the importance of an experienced surrogacy attorney. Because Athens surrogacy laws can be complicated, you’ll need an attorney to complete this process safely and legally.
Fortunately, Southern Surrogacy has you covered. As a law-firm-owned program, we offer in-house legal representation to our intended parents. This means, rather than having to outsource your legal representation, you’ll be offered legal guidance from the same professionals who will manage your day-to-day surrogacy journey. And, rather than pay extra for services a la carte, all of your legal expenses will be included in your program fees.
Our in-house attorneys are part of local law firm Claiborne|Fox|Bradley|Goldman, a regional law firm with years of experience in Georgia surrogacy law. They’ve guided many of our clients through successful surrogacies, and they’ll be happy to do the same for you.
In addition to providing legal guidance, your attorney will:
- Draft, negotiate and finalize a surrogacy contract with your surrogate
- Establish parental rights through any necessary parentage orders
- Confirm that your surrogacy journey meets necessary laws and regulations
We will also help all gestational carriers obtain independent legal counsel, to avoid conflict of interest and further protect their rights and interests.
You can contact our offices anytime to learn more about our legal representation and how it works with our Athens surrogacy agency program.
Looking for an Athens Surrogacy Clinic?
There’s one final professional you’ll need in any surrogacy in Athens, GA: a surrogacy clinic. You might also know it as fertility clinic.
These clinics perform important pre-surrogacy medical steps. They are responsible for screening each party to confirm eligibility, prescribing a surrogate fertility medication and monitoring her cycle, and then transferring the intended parents’ embryo to her uterus when ready.
Most intended parents have a fertility clinic in mind when starting their Athens surrogacy, whether or not it is located close by. You will likely be able to work with this fertility clinic; however, if it is not local, you will need to pay for your surrogate’s travel and lodging costs. After her pregnancy is confirmed, your surrogate will then receive prenatal care from her local obstetrician and deliver at her local hospital.

- Atlanta Center for Reproductive Medicine
