Surrogacy Laws in Indiana

Indiana Code 31-20-1-1 makes navigating surrogacy a unique challenge for families. At Hatch, we can connect you with the best attorneys in reproductive and family law to ensure your protection and a smooth journey ahead.

Surrogacy laws in Indiana render surrogacy contracts void and unenforceable, meaning there may be no formal protection for Intended Parents if disagreements arise. Indiana law specifies that these contracts are against public policy, emphasizing that the state does not support or legally uphold surrogacy arrangements.

Due to these laws, Indiana Intended Parents will often work with surrogates in a surrogate-friendly state to ensure enforceable contracts.

Unfortunately, due to legal complexities, Hatch does not work with surrogates from Indiana. This is to ensure compliance with all relevant laws and regulations, safeguarding both the surrogates and the intended parents throughout the surrogacy journey.
