Scheduled within one week of your first outreach, this 90-minute consultation gives you the time and space to learn, ask questions, and gain clarity — without pressure. It’s more than an overview; it’s a meaningful conversation built around transparency, education, and trust.

  • Learn how surrogates are screened and qualified
  • Explore how matching works and what alignment looks like
  • Understand legal requirements and protections
