Many of our hopeful parents come to us after months, if not years of trying to figure out their egg donor journey on their own. It can be a confusing process. Most likely, you've already had heartache and loss, and spend thousands of dollars on fertility treatment. These kind words came from a client who was helped by Krystal, one of our senior case managers. We're here to take off some of that pressure and to guide you to the right donors, the right fertility clinics and t...he right gestational carriers. We know your road is tough, but we're here to walk it with you. #teamwork #eggdonorjourney #surrogacyjourney #bestsurrogacyagencies #bestfertilityclinics #buildingfamilies #donoreggivf #deivf

Congratulations New York! For many New Yorkers, building a family through surrogacy meant they had to go outside of the state. But now, a new law called the Child Parent Security Act, passed in April 2020 and going in effect on Monday 15th February, 2021, in New York state means compensated gestational surrogacy is now legal. According to Richard Vaughn, surrogacy law expert and attorney at the International Fertility Law Group, "This is long-awaited reform. It removes a sig...nificant obstacles to surrogacy and protects the rights of intended parents to create families through assisted reproduction. And it helps remove the stigma, and the insecurity that were faced by non-traditional families as well. Vaughn says the new laws are strict and must be adhered to by all parties, including intended parents, agencies, attorneys and fertility clinics, but is now in place to protect all parties from potential harm. While there is still some 'clean-up' work to be done on the bill, the new laws mean access to gestational surrogacy in the state of New York is available to all hopeful parents.
