Further on, Ferrara meticulously explains the various stages of the surrogacy journey in detail that will assist all intended parents to organize their thoughts and plans to have children through surrogacy. As Dr. Doyle asserts, this book is authored by “one of the most trusted and admired surrogacy attorneys in the United States.”
