Surrogacy Attorneys in Kansas
Whether you choose to complete an agency-assisted or independent surrogacy journey in the Sunflower State, you will still need to work with a surrogacy attorney in Kansas.
Currently, there are no surrogacy laws in Kansas — but that doesn’t mean the surrogacy process is a free-for-all. There are strict legal protocols that must be followed, and only a local surrogacy lawyer can ensure that the rights of both intended parents and gestational carriers are protected in this process.
Your surrogacy attorney will play an integral role in ensuring your surrogacy follows legal standards, drafting your legal surrogacy contract, and establishing parental rights for intended parents. In fact, you will not be able to proceed with your medical process of surrogacy in Kansas until your legal contract has been completed — so an experienced Kansas surrogacy attorney is a non-negotiable.
Your choice of surrogacy attorney will always be up to you. Our surrogacy specialists maintain a list of local, experienced Kansas surrogacy lawyers we refer our clients to and that we frequently work with. That list includes:
- Michael J. Belfonte, P.C.
- Kevin W. Kenney
- Megan Monsour at Martin|Pringle, Attorneys at Law
- Law Offices of Joseph W. Booth
If you end up matching with a gestational surrogate in a state other than Kansas, you will work with an experienced surrogacy attorney there. American Surrogacy can also provide legal references in this situation.
Surrogacy Clinics in Kansas
Another professional every intended parent and prospective surrogate needs in their surrogacy journey is a surrogacy clinic, also known as a fertility clinic. This medical professional is responsible for screening a prospective gestational carrier, preparing her with a fertility medical protocol, completing the embryo transfer process and confirming her pregnancy.
Unlike a surrogacy attorney, surrogacy clinics do not need to be located in Kansas for a surrogacy in this state to continue. Many intended parents have existing relationships with out-of-state fertility clinics due to prior infertility treatments.
If this is your situation, you do not need to find a Kansas surrogacy clinic to proceed. Instead, you will simply need to pay for your surrogate’s travel costs to your clinic for the eventual embryo transfer process.
However, if intended parents in Kansas do not yet have a surrogacy clinic in mind, there are a few local options that our specialists would recommend:
- Blue Sky Fertility
- Dr. Kimberly Vandegeest-Wallace, PhD — University of Kansas
- Midwest Reproductive Center, PA
- Reproductive Resource Center
- The University of Kansas Advanced Reproductive Medicine
The professionals listed in this article are just a few of those Kansas surrogacy attorneys and clinics that you might consider for your personal surrogacy journey. Our specialists are always happy to provide a more extensive list for those who are interested.
