Surrogacy in Oregon

Surrogacy is legal in Oregon. Like most states, Oregon has little law regarding surrogacy. However, Oregon courts have acknowledged surrogacy and created legal relationships between intended parents and their children for over 20 years.

How you establish parental rights will depend on your specific circumstances, including whether you are genetic parents or working with a donor, and whether your surrogate is married. Northwest Surrogacy Center, LLC has a strong referral base of established and experienced attorneys to assist you in securing a legal relationship with your child.
