Gestational and Traditional Surrogacy offer additional options to those who have been trying unsuccessfully to have a family. Our goal is for our clients to have the biological child they've so desired, through a smooth medical and legal process.

In Gestational Surrogacy, a surrogate mother carries an embryo, which is the result of a union of the egg and sperm of the biological parents or egg/sperm donors. This process is often a successful option for women who, for various medical reasons, cannot carry a baby, as well as for single commissioning parents. In Traditional Surrogacy involves the creation of a pregnancy through artificial insemmination. This is referred to as "Preplanned Adoption" by Florida Statutes.


Although Florida's adoption laws have been very progressive, some prospective parents continue to worry that a biological parent may attempt to reclaim a child in the future or they may not be fully informed about the child's genetic and medical background. In Gestational Surrogacy, the surrogate has no legal right to the child because the child is not biologically hers. In addition, the genetic and medical history is readily available. In Traditional Surrogacy or "Preplanned Adoption" there is a 48 hr. post birth period where a Surrogate may rescind her consent to the Surrogacy if it is her egg that is utilized in the process.


Our surrogates, egg donors and sperm donors are preliminarily screened by us and then medically and psychologically screened by the fertility program of your choice. They are from all income levels and backgrounds. Most participate primarily for benevolent reasons and truly want to help others achieve their dream of becoming parents. We have surrogates available today who are remarkable women willing to assist you in bringing your child into the world in this special way. We have very close working relationships, and can refer you to some of the finest fertility and obstetrical centers in the Country.


Additionally, we can refer you to excellent psychologists and genetics counselors who specialize in this field. We believe our role as attorney, counselor and friend requires that we assist and support you in all aspects of the process, from contract to birth certificate(s)! We mention "certificates" because some of our cases have happily resulted in twins.
