Take ActionAlabama Donor Insemination Law
Alabama law is silent on the issue of donor insemination performed on an unmarried woman. There is no provision regarding the legal rights or obligations of a donor.
According to the law, the husband of a woman who undergoes artificial insemination is treated as the father of the resulting child. The statute requires the husband’s written consent and physician supervision for the procedure.
