Surrogacy Arrangements

Lowry Legal’s expert surrogacy solicitors can simplify even the most complex arrangements.

About Surrogacy Arrangements

The law surrounding surrogacy is often a highly complex area that can be further complicated when the surrogacy arrangements have international dimensions.

One of the biggest challenges for international surrogacy arrangements is that, although such agreements are not illegal in England and Wales, nor are formal surrogacy agreements if entered into outside of the UK. They are not legally binding or enforceable under English law should the intended parent(s) experience any difficulties once the child is born through surrogacy. Because of this, it’s important to receive tailored advice from experienced surrogacy solicitors about the steps required to acquire a parental order.

At Lowry Legal, we have a comprehensive track record of helping high net worth clients with both domestic and international surrogacy cases. We understand the potential pitfalls of surrogacy arrangements so we will set out your options with clarity and detail. You’re in safe hands with us.
