Surrogacy in Nebraska:
For Parents and Surrogates
Nebraska takes a restrictive legal stance on compensated surrogacy in the United States. Under current law, only altruistic gestational surrogacy arrangements are permitted, and compensated surrogacy contracts (like those with Giving Tree surrogates) are considered unenforceable. Due to these laws, Giving Tree does not work with any surrogates who reside in the state of Nebraska. For intended parents living in Nebraska, our experienced team can help provide the right legal counsel for a successful journey.

Nebraska Surrogacy Laws
Nebraska takes a restrictive legal stance on compensated surrogacy, making it important for intended parents to proceed with careful legal guidance. State law declares paid surrogacy contracts unenforceable, which means that any agreement involving compensation beyond medical and pregnancy-related expenses cannot be legally enforced in court. However, uncompensated (altruistic) surrogacy arrangements are not prohibited and can still be carried out ethically and successfully with the right support.
Despite the limitations on compensated surrogacy, Nebraska’s courts recognize the intent and best interests of the child when establishing legal parentage. In most cases, the woman who gives birth is considered the legal mother at birth, and her spouse—if married—is presumed to be the legal father. Therefore, intended parents typically need to obtain a post-birth parentage or adoption order to be legally recognized as the child’s parents and to have their names added to the birth certificate.
Because these procedures can vary by county and judge, it’s crucial for intended parents to work with experienced reproductive law attorneys familiar with Nebraska’s unique framework. Proper legal planning ensures that every step of the process—from the surrogacy agreement to the parentage or adoption order—is handled with transparency, compliance, and respect for all parties involved.
Surrogacy in Nebraska is generally more feasible for altruistic arrangements, often between relatives or close friends who wish to help intended parents grow their family without financial compensation. LGBTQIA+ families, single intended parents, and international clients can also pursue surrogacy in the state, though additional legal steps may be required to secure full parental rights.
At Giving Tree Surrogacy, we understand the complexities of surrogacy in Nebraska and help intended parents navigate them with clarity and compassion. We coordinate closely with trusted reproductive law attorneys to ensure every agreement meets ethical standards and aligns with state law—so you can move forward knowing your family’s foundation is secure.
