Legal Guidance UK - Secure Your Parental Rights with Expert Guidance
Once you arrive home in the UK with your baby, one of the most important steps is initiating the final legal process: obtaining a “parental order.” This crucial step ensures you are legally recognized as the child’s parents under UK law, granting you full parental rights under UK law.
To make this journey as smooth as possible, we highly recommend working with our UK-based international surrogacy consultant. Not only is he a trusted and highly respected barrister, but he also brings personal experience as a parent of children born through international surrogacy. With his unique blend of expertise and firsthand knowledge, he has helped countless international intended parents navigate the parental order process with confidence.
The parental order takes place in the High Court of London and is essential to legally transferring parental rights from the surrogate to you. Under UK law, the surrogate is considered the legal mother, regardless of any foreign documentation or birth certificate. This step removes her parental rights, ensuring your legal recognition as your child’s parents.
We recommend getting in touch with us after 20 weeks into the surrogacy pregnancy so we can connect you directly with our international surrogacy consultant. He has a wealth of experience handling similar cases and will guide you through every step of the process, ensuring a seamless transition to parenthood.
Let us take care of the final part of your surrogacy journey with trusted legal expertise. Your baby’s future is in the best possible hands.
