How a Consumer Hired a Lawyer to Draft a Surrogacy Contract in California

In 2026, an individual in California sought assistance with drafting a surrogacy contract for a known sperm donor to use with a fertility clinic. The client aimed to create a comprehensive legal agreement that would protect the interests of all parties involved and include a clause confirming that all parties had signed. With a budget under $500, the client prioritized finding cost-effective options that met the essentials required for the agreement. As a result, the client received two proposals from licensed attorneys, with flat fee bids ranging from $245 to $750, all submitted to meet the requested deadline of less than one week.
