    Navigating Your Journey: Key Legal Considerations

    Your surrogacy or donor journey involves life-changing decisions — and our job is to guide you through them with clarity and care.

    • Finding an Egg Donor or Surrogate: We work with trusted agencies and clinics or provide legal support for known donors and surrogates, ensuring compliant, balanced agreements.

    • Preparing for the Unexpected: Strong gestational surrogacy agreements anticipate challenges like medical complications or unforeseen costs.

    Known Donors and Surrogates: When friends or family are involved, we ensure both sides have separate representation and clear terms that protect your relationship and your child’s future.

    Support at the Hospital and Beyond

    When your baby arrives, the focus should be on joy — not paperwork. FSLG works directly with hospitals to ensure:

    • Your parentage orders are honored.

    • Your child’s birth certificate lists both intended parents correctly.

    • Hospital & Vital Records are filed without delay.

    For international clients, we also guide you through passport and travel documentation so your journey home is smooth and secure.

    Frequently Asked Questions for Intended Parents

    What’s the difference between parental establishment and adoption?

    Pre-birth orders establish legal parentage before birth and don’t require a home study. They’re faster and more secure than adoption.

    Can FSLG help me find a surrogate or egg donor?

    Yes. We work with agencies and clinics in states where surrogacy is legal, and support intended parents using known surrogates or donors.

    Do I need to visit the San Diego office in person?

    No. Clients across the U.S. and internationally work with us remotely via secure video calls, email, and mail services.

    What if I live outside the United States?

    We specialize in international surrogacy law and can coordinate birth certificates, passports, and travel clearances for your child.
