Other Things to Know About Surrogacy in Missouri
In Missouri, surrogacy remains a largely unregulated area of law. While there are no specific statutes governing surrogacy arrangements, the state generally recognizes and enforces surrogacy agreements. However, it's crucial for intended parents and surrogates to navigate this legal landscape carefully and ensure that all parties are protected throughout the process.
Consulting with a knowledgeable legal professional who specializes in reproductive law is highly recommended to understand the nuances of surrogacy in Missouri. We can connect you with a legal professional in our network or you can find one in your state below:

Establishing Parentage
Missouri does not currently grant parentage orders in surrogacy arrangements. While surrogacy agreements are generally recognized and enforced, intended parents may need to pursue alternative legal avenues to establish their parental rights.
This often involves a more complex legal process compared to states where parentage orders are routinely granted. Experienced legal professionals specializing in reproductive law can help you navigate the intricacies of surrogacy and ensure that your parental rights are protected.
