A Parental Order transfers legal parenthood to the intended parents in a surrogacy arrangement, allowing them to become the child’s legal parents. A solicitor in this area helps prepare and file the formal application to the Family Court, gather required evidence, obtain consent from the surrogate, and coordinate with social services and the court. They also attend hearings, manage any support orders, and ensure the order is made within the statutory window so parental rights pass to the intended parents.
The order matters because it replaces the surrogate’s parental rights with those of the intended parents, enabling them to make long-term decisions for the child, including custody, schooling, and medical consent. The process is time-sensitive: an application must usually be made within six months of the child’s birth, and delays can affect eligibility and finalisation.

I was really grateful to have Emily on my side during my recent separation. We secured a great deal in resolving the dispute with my ex-partner which related to non-equal shares in our home that was owned in joint names without a shareholder agreement.
