Surrogacy Agencies

Here you can find a list of agencies that could help you in making your dream come true. We could assist you in various aspects: from finding a surrogate to obtaining the Birth Certificate for your baby. When publishing the information on the site, we decided to give you only reliable and useful data obtained from our clients, partners and other sources. As we want you to be given only professional service, we decided to give you information on reliable companies and medical centers only. That is why you can find here some facts about one company only. We can’t make you turn to our company for help, but we can prove that the services we provide are the best ones you can be given in this field.
When choosing a company to turn to, pay attention to the following issues:

• Legal registration and documents. It is desirable that the company should be registered by a person who works for this company and you should have a look at the original of the registration papers of the company and ask for a copy when signing a contract.
• Experience. That kind of assistance is quite new for Russia and in the world in general. However, we wouldn’t recommend dealing with a company that has less than a 2-year experience in this field.
• Do everything you can to make sure that the company you have chosen is reliable. Google it, try to find out its clients’ reference letters, surrogates’ opinion of the company. You can find such information on Internet forums, in blogs and livejournals.
• Company’s office. The cosier and more comfortable the office is, the better. Have a look at the personnel’s appearances, at what they are doing. When in office, look whether they have a lot of clients calling them, whether they have their own business cards, forms or sample envelopes. These small things might tell you a lot about the company you’ve decided to turn to for assistance.
• General Manager. The first thing you should do when deciding to implement a surrogacy programme with the chosen company is to meet its General Manager in person. Don’t hesitate to ask him or her any questions you are interested in, ask him or her to produce his or her ID documents, education certificate or whatever — people doing fair business have nothing to hide from their clients. You confide that person not only with you money but with your child’s life. That is why you should be certain that he or she is reliable. If your questions are dealt with with irritation or the answers given are unclear, that’s the first sign for you to reconsider you choice.
• Surrogate database. A reliable agency will never offer you a huge database with millions of surrogates for you to choose at once, because searching for an appropriate carrier for your baby will always take some time. Even a company engaged in surrogacy for a long period of time will ask you to give it some time to find surrogate candidates for you. When looking at the pictures of the candidates suggested by the company managers, pay attention to when and where these pictures were taken.
• When signing a contract, make sure it protects your rights. The more carefully it is spelt-out, the better. We’d recommend you consulting a lawyer before signing a contract.
• Guarantees. If an agency guarantees you success at the first attempt, think twice whether you’ve chosen the right agency. Be especially careful about financial guarantees and reimbursements, i.e. what happens with the money you paid if the surrogate refuses to give you the baby. One of the most important guarantees to keep in mind when signing a contract is that the fee for the programme should be fixed for the whole period of the implementation. The contract should also stipulate that a DNA test could be taken to verify the genetic relation between you and the baby.
• Mode of payment. A reliable company will never ask you to pay in cash, all transactions must be made with receipts. If you are unsatisfied with the services you have been provided, you can always file an appeal, and the receipts will be a proof for the guilt of the company. It the agency you have chosen asks you to effect a transaction for a private individual or for an unreliable company, that’s a bad sign.
• Credit or payment in installments are always an advantage. If the agency you have chosen agrees with the payment scheme or accepts your payment upon the delivery, be sure that this agency is reliable. We’d recommend you opening an irrevocable credit account for your agents to receive the money as soon as they have fulfilled their obligations.
• Unpredictable circumstances. A reliable company will always make you special allowances in case you’ve faced some unpredictable unfavourable circumstances in you life. For example, we know a couple that was allowed to have an extension for paying off their credit due to unpredictable changes in their family budget.
• Medical centre. It is you who choose the medical centre you like, the agency can only offer you a list of medical centers where you could implement a surrogacy programme. You can check out such a list on our web-site.
• Surrogates’ accommodation in Moscow. You should know where and with whom your baby is at the moment. If the agency conceals this information from you, that’s not a good sign.
• Legality. Professionals will never ask you to do something illegal. Keep off agencies saying you will obtain all the documents as soon as the officers ‘have settled the matter on a personal basis’ or ‘the surrogate should be registered as you wife when delivering the baby’

People turn to a surrogate agency when they cannot have children of their own naturally. Infertility can occur for numerous reasons: health problems, sterility, various diseases, social taboos and psychological complexes, and - last but not least - a simple unwillingness to be married. People who wanted to have children of their own have put up children for adoption for centuries. However, one would like to have a genetically related child. It's just human! Adoption is not always the best solution here and sometimes it might even result in a family tragedy. That’s why getting a child through surrogacy might be the best solution for infertile couples.
This company offers legal and coordination services in the most complex and at the same time most delicate field of the family law.
