When an individual or couple needs the services of a gestational
carrier, Melissa drafts legal contracts that detail the
parties’ rights, obligations, intentions and expectations.
The contract addresses subjects such as parental rights,
custody issues, location of delivery, future contact between
the parties, and insurance (both health and life). In addition,
the contract covers medical issues such as control over
medical decisions during the pregnancy, payment of medical
bills, liability for medical complications, availability
of medical history and personal medical information on the
gestational carrier, and intended parents’ presence
during doctor visits and the delivery. Financial considerations
such as the gestational carrier’s compensation and
expenses including lost wages, legal fees, child care and
maternity clothes are also addressed in the contract.
