Law
Statutory and procedural position
Check current Georgian law and the authority responsible for the particular decision rather than relying on a general statement about surrogacy.
Rights connected to law and evidence
Protecting the Rights of Intended Parents
Intended-parent rights do not come from one promise or document. They may depend on current law, valid contracts, consent records, parentage evidence, civil procedure and decisions made by Georgian or foreign authorities.

Where intended-parent rights arise
Identify the legal source before asserting the right
Different questions—information, performance, treatment consent, documents, parentage, money or remedies—may have different legal foundations and limits.
Contract
Agreed obligations and remedies
Identify who promised what, the conditions attached, notice requirements and the remedy or escalation process stated in the documents.
Consent
Documented decisions and authority
Review whose authorization is legally relevant to treatment, records, storage or later documentary steps.
Parentage
Civil and foreign recognition evidence
Separate Georgian registration from nationality, travel and parentage effects decided under destination-country law.
Contracts and informed decisions
Rights are stronger when duties, evidence and procedure are clear
Independent counsel can review how the intended parents’ position is documented across agency, clinic, surrogate, donor, storage and payment materials. Advice should identify both rights and continuing obligations.
No right should be described as absolute without checking the current facts and competing legal interests, including clinical responsibilities, third-party confidentiality and the child’s legal interests.
Questions to establish
- Which law or agreement supports the position?
- Who owes the relevant duty?
- What evidence records the event?
- Is notice or a deadline involved?
- Which authority or remedy is available?
Parentage and documentation
Protect rights by maintaining a complete and consistent record
The evidentiary file often determines whether a right can be explained or enforced efficiently.
Identify the decision
Define the information, performance, document, payment, consent or status at issue.
Find the legal source
Review the applicable law, agreement, record and responsible party.
Preserve and notify
Keep original evidence and use the appropriate written notice or request route.
Select a remedy
Pursue clarification, negotiation, administrative action or proceedings proportionate to the risk.
Responding when rights are threatened
Protect the objective, not only the argument
The appropriate response depends on whether the priority is information, continued performance, a document, safety, money, parentage or time-sensitive authority action.
Prevent
Clarification before commitment
Resolve ambiguous roles, exclusions, consent and exit assumptions before signing or transferring substantial funds.
Correct
Documentation or performance gap
Request the specific record, explanation, cure or amendment supported by the agreement and facts.
Enforce
Material threat or unresolved breach
Assess urgent preservation, negotiation, administrative procedure or litigation only after defining evidence and remedy.
Frequently asked questions
Questions about intended-parent rights
These answers are general information. The current law, documents, participants and countries involved must be reviewed for individual advice.
Are intended-parent rights contained in one surrogacy contract?
Not necessarily. The position may involve legislation, several agreements, consent forms, civil records and foreign law. The complete document set and facts should be reviewed.
Does independent counsel represent every participant’s interests?
No. Independent intended-parent counsel advises the intended parents within the engagement and professional duties. Other participants may need their own advice.
What should intended parents do when a right may be threatened?
Preserve the original record, identify any immediate safety or authority deadline, avoid unsupported public allegations and seek prompt advice on the correct request or remedy.
