BTC Babies in Ukraine and the Future of Surrogacy
Wednesday, May 27, 10 am MT/12 pm ET/19:00 Kyiv
Nataliia Lazarieva, Senior Attorney, Adonis Medical Group of Companies
One of the strong points of surrogacy in Ukraine is the strict legislation surrounding it. The process set for parental rights establishment is one of the strongest in the world! Frankly, even the USA has more loopholes in its legislation regarding surrogacy and it varies from state to state.
It’s heartbreaking to see how some media outlets are sharing unreliable facts to spread panic, rather than providing helpful research to support people.
Join our open meeting with Adonis’ Senior Attorney, Nataliia Lazarieva. She will answer your questions honestly and won’t hold any information back. She’s open, genuine and one of the top experts on surrogacy in Ukraine.
We have no agenda other than to be here for you, answer your questions, and to serve you.

Join us, as Nataliia Lazarieva, Adonis’ Senior Attorney, will go over the best practices of the fertility agreements in Ukraine that will protect your finances and give piece of mind.

It’s happening so frequently that it’s almost as if agencies and medical providers are trying to blow-up your budget and add steps.
