This evening on Legal Matters we talk about surrogate motherhood. Surrogacy remains a multifaceted issue, encompassing physical, emotional, cultural, legal, and ethical considerations. It is a complex and widely debated topic worldwide, with diverse legal frameworks and regulations across different countries. The selection criteria for a surrogate require careful consideration to ensure the well-being of all parties involved. To tell us more about this we’re joined by Claire Thomson, attorney in private practice at Witz Inc Attorneys in Johannesburg. Claire is a specialist family law practitioner, a trained mediator and a notary public. She is also practices commercial law.
