Good News for Intended Parents and Gestational Carriers in PA

Tuesday, December 15, 2015

We have welcome news for intended parents working with gestational carriers residing and delivering in Pennsylvania. 

On November 23^rd, 2015, the Superior Court of Pennsylvania ruled that a gestational carrier contract can be enforced in Pennsylvania. This is the first time an appellate court has specifically ruled on the enforce-ability of a gestational carrier contract in Pennsylvania. This decision now clarifies the law for the many people who use ART in Pennsylvania to form their families.
