Colorado law clarifies that a donor is not a legal parent solely by donating reproductive tissue. The Uniform Parentage Act and later amendments define donors and intended parents in assisted reproduction matters. If intended parents follow the statutory framework, parentage is established without assigning parental status to the donor. Agreements and medical procedures done in line with the statutes protect everyone’s roles. Courts can also confirm parentage through orders under the surrogacy act when needed. These statutes provide predictability for families building through donation. For assistance with family building, contact us.
