Miami Surrogacy Agency for Intended Parents

You're not looking for a call center. You're not looking for a M-F 9-5 coordinator who's never met you to manage the most important thing happening in your life. You're looking for someone with years of experience and knowledge who knows your file, knows your story, and picks up the phone when you call.

The question is never which agency has the largest database. The question is: who is actually running this process, and what happens when you need them?

That's what we built Advocates for Surrogacy to be.

Advocates for Surrogacy was founded by Candace O'Brien, an attorney with nearly two decades of experience in surrogacy and third-party reproduction. Candace doesn't hand your journey off to a coordinator once you sign. She handles it personally — every match, every call, every milestone — from the moment you submit your questionnaire to the day your baby is born.

Surrogacy involves contracts, court orders, insurance structures, and the laws of the state where your surrogate delivers. Those are foundational components of your legal relationship with your child. We do not act as legal counsel to intended parents or surrogates within the agency relationship — both parties retain independent legal representation, which is both a Florida requirement and a standard ethical one. What our background provides is informed oversight: the ability to identify risk, ask the right questions, and make sure your professional team is functioning cohesively.

Most surrogacy coordinators cannot read a gestational carrier agreement critically. Ours can.

If you've spoken to other agencies and felt like you were talking to a sales process, this will feel different.

Miami occupies a unique position in the surrogacy landscape. It is home to world-class fertility clinics, a multilingual professional community, and one of the most internationally connected airports in the country. For intended parents from Latin America, Europe, or elsewhere, Miami is a natural gateway for a U.S.-based surrogacy journey.

Working with a Miami-based agency means working with someone embedded in South Florida's legal and medical communities — an advantage a national agency with a Florida landing page simply cannot replicate.

As the industry has grown, many agencies have adopted high-volume models. That often means rotating coordinators and inconsistent communication. Advocates for Surrogacy operates differently by design.

We accept a limited number of clients. This allows us to give each journey the attention it requires — not the attention left over after managing a full caseload. For intended parents, that means direct access to the decision-maker. You can review the full breakdown of surrogacy costs or what the cost of surrogacy in Florida looks like for families pursuing a journey in the state.

Florida statutory law authorizes gestational surrogacy and provides a defined legal pathway for intended parents to establish parental rights.

• Gestational surrogacy agreements must be executed before medical procedures begin.
• Both intended parents and surrogates must retain independent legal counsel.
• The state of delivery governs the legal parentage process.
• Escrow management through an independent third party protects all parties.

We work with intended parents from Miami, across South Florida, throughout the United States, and internationally. Our clients include married couples, single parents, and LGBTQ+ individuals and couples.

We do not have a standard client profile. What our clients share is a commitment to doing this process properly — with structure, transparency, and realistic expectations.

Miami has one of the most established LGBTQ+ communities in the country. We have extensive experience supporting gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender intended parents. Learn more about our approach to LGBTQ+ surrogacy.

Miami's global connectivity makes it a natural choice for international intended parents. We understand the additional legal and logistical considerations involved, including citizenship documentation and coordination across jurisdictions.
