Surrogacy Contracts: Testing & Termination Decisions (Alignment vs Agreement) | Building your family

If you’re using surrogacy and stressed about testing or termination decisions, this episode walks through a two‑bucket framework so you and your team stay aligned before you sign anything.

What you’ll learn fast:

Alignment vs Agreement: principles first, everything else second, so contracts don’t crumble under stress.
The Two Buckets: value essentials vs detail clauses, and why mixing them derails deals.
Contract Decoder: translate dense terms into “if X, then we do Y” rules your team can follow.
Scripts for agencies/clinics: “We’re aligned on X and Y; here’s how we’ll handle Z.”
Red flags + escalation: exactly when to pause matching and how to restart clean.
