While the laws vary from state to state, overall it is extremely clear that children born as a result of egg donation legally belong to the couple receiving the donated eggs. The recipients assume all moral, legal and financial responsibility for any children born from the egg donation. Egg donors have absolutely no parental rights or responsibility for the future welfare or support of these children. The above is for information purposes only and is not meant to be a substitute for legal advice. BHED insists all donors and recipients received legal consultation from a licensed attorney prior to any donation procedure.
