Steven H. Snyder , Esq., Executive Director of IARC®, will supervise every aspect of your program. In addition, as an attorney, he will personally draft and/or coordinate all the legal documents for your program. Our contracts are based on twenty years of assisted reproduction experience. IARC® will send thorough agreements to all of the parties for signatures. Although we recommend that you have a separate attorney to advise you regarding your initial agreement with our agency, feel free to call with any general questions that you may have regarding any of the agreements into which you must enter.

For those who use a surrogate, IARC® works with lawyers in the various states where the surrogates will give birth. IARC® can help you find a lawyer who will outline legal requirements and procedures for you when you are considering a surrogate so that you fully understand the legal atmosphere in the state of delivery. Once the pregnancy occurs, IARC® will facilitate communication between you and your lawyer and will help to reduce your legal fees by compiling the necessary legal documentation.

As you pursue your ovum donor and/or surrogacy program, you will be speaking to various staff members who will be helping with different parts of your program. We have weekly update meetings and communicate amongst ourselves continually so that your program continues to move along in an efficient, steady, and organized manner.
