There were never such devoted sisters – Gay couple wins custody of twins after relationship with surrogate mother breaks down

Surrogacy allows many LGBT couples to expand their families. But like any other relationship, when the relationship between children’s parents and a surrogate breaks down, there can be protracted litigation. This litigation drains valuable time, energy and resources from the children it is designed to protect. Choosing the right surrogate and planning for contingencies if the relationship with the surrogate degrades can help prevent the joy of parenthood from becoming a litigation nightmare.
