    Protecting Your Journey
    Every Step of the Way

    Understanding insurance and legal requirements is crucial to a successful surrogacy journey. We guide you through every aspect to ensure you're protected.

    Insurance Coverage

    Comprehensive Insurance Coordination

    We handle all insurance verification and coordination to protect everyone involved

    Surrogate Health Insurance

    We verify that your surrogate has appropriate health insurance coverage that includes maternity benefits and doesn't exclude surrogacy.

    Surrogate Life Insurance

    We coordinate life insurance and disability insurance policies to protect your surrogate and your investment throughout the pregnancy.

    Insurance Verification

    Our team conducts thorough insurance verification to identify any exclusions, limitations, or waiting periods that could affect your journey.

    Intended Parent Coverage

    We help you understand your own insurance coverage and how it may apply to fertility treatments and embryo creation.

    Legal Protection

    Experienced Legal Guidance

    We work with top reproductive attorneys to protect your parental rights

    Pre-Birth Orders

    In surrogacy-friendly states, we facilitate pre-birth orders that establish your parental rights before the baby is born, allowing your names on the birth certificate.

    Surrogacy Contracts

    Comprehensive legal agreements outlining rights, responsibilities, compensation, and contingencies. Both parties have independent legal representation.

    Parental Rights

    Establishing legal parentage varies by state. We work with experienced reproductive attorneys to ensure your parental rights are protected.

    Second Parent Adoption

    In some jurisdictions, a second parent or co-parent adoption may be required after birth to establish legal parentage for both intended parents.

    International Considerations

    For international intended parents, we coordinate with attorneys on visa requirements, citizenship laws, and bringing your baby home.

    Estate Planning

    We can refer you to attorneys who specialize in estate planning documents like wills and guardianship designations for your growing family.

    State Laws

    Navigating State-Specific Requirements

    Surrogacy laws vary significantly by state. We have experience working across all 50 states and know how to navigate the legal landscape to protect your parental rights.
