In true legal A-Team fashion, the pair breaks down what you need to have in a validated Gestational Agreement in TX in order to make sure that the intended parents will be able to safely and securely take their bundle of joy home. If you or a friend are considering surrogacy, this is the perfect episode to tune in to so you know what questions to ask your lawyer when you decide to pursue a Gestational Agreement.
