Is surrogacy in Indiana, even legal? While gestational surrogacy contracts in Indiana are void, unenforceable, and against public policy (Indiana Code §31-20-1-1), gestational surrogacy is still completed in the state of Indiana. Provided that the contract was drafted under another state's laws that declares the legal rights of the parties, and with careful documentation of the genetic status of the embryos, many courts have allowed pre-birth orders for married couples, unmarried couples, and single individuals, whether they are heterosexual or same-sex.
