Looking for a Surrogacy Agency in North Charleston, SC? You’ve Found One
Asking if you should work with a surrogacy agency in North Charleston? The answer is often yes — and here’s why.
A surrogacy agency or full-service program (like Southern Surrogacy) is a one-stop shop for all your surrogacy needs. You won’t need to hire case management and matching services a la carte, for example; your surrogacy program will guide you through every step from start to finish.
But, why work with a regional program like Southern Surrogacy instead of a national agency?
Southern Surrogacy is a local professional, which means we can provide an in-person feel and a regional network you won’t find at a larger agency. Our team has decades of experience in South Carolina surrogacy; we know what works, and we bring that expertise to every North Charleston surrogacy journey.
When you work with us, you’ll be provided these extensive services and more:
- Education and screening to ensure that surrogacy in North Charleston is right for you
- Assistance creating a surrogacy profile to aid in matching
- Matching services to find the right gestational carrier or intended parent for your goals
- Referrals to and coordination with other local professionals
- Personal case management and support from start to finish
- Ensuring surrogates receive competitive compensation (ranging from $48,000 to $50,000 for first-time carriers)
Don’t be just another number to a national agency; choose Southern Surrogacy, where you’ll be treated like a member of the family.
When you’re ready to get started, give us a call at 855-787-2229 or contact us online. We’ll answer your questions and give you more information during a free consult and, when you want to start your personal surrogacy plan, we’ll set up an in-person meeting at our Atlanta office:

Looking for a North Charleston Surrogacy Attorney?
While an agency or full-service program is optional for your North Charleston surrogacy, an experienced surrogacy attorney is not. Fortunately, when you choose Southern Surrogacy, you get access to both under one roof.
That’s right — unlike other surrogacy programs, Southern Surrogacy can offer in-house legal representation to our intended parents. We’re a law-firm-owned program, which means your case manager and your attorney will work hand-in-hand from the start to meet your surrogacy needs. We’ll do so efficiently, safely and legally, thanks to our experience with South Carolina surrogacy laws.
Our attorneys from Claiborne|Fox|Bradley|Goldman have been working in South Carolina for decades, and they will only provide the best service to you as they:
- Confirm that your surrogacy plan meets local laws and regulations
- Draft, negotiate and finalize a legal surrogacy contract
- Establish the intended parents’ rights through necessary parentage orders
- And more
Please note: Legal services are included in intended parents’ program fees. Gestational surrogates’ legal expenses will be covered by their intended parents, and we will help locate independent counsel for them, to avoid conflicts of interest.

Looking for a North Charleston Surrogacy Clinic?
There’s one final professional you’re sure to need during your surrogacy in North Charleston: a surrogacy or fertility clinic.
A surrogacy clinic will complete all the important medical steps for creating a gestational surrogacy. This includes creating embryos through in vitro fertilization, screening both parties to confirm surrogacy eligibility, prescribing a surrogate fertility medication and then transferring the intended parents’ embryo to her uterus.
We know most intended parents have an existing relationship with a regional fertility clinic when they start their surrogacy in North Charleston. In most cases, that relationship can continue (intended parents must cover their surrogate’s travel and lodging costs, when necessary). After the pregnancy is confirmed, a surrogate will receive prenatal care from her local obstetrician and deliver at her local hospital.
Don’t have a North Charleston surrogacy clinic in mind yet? Contact one of these regional options to determine if surrogacy is the right family-building path for you:
- Coastal Fertility Specialists
- The Fertility Center of Charleston
- Fertility Center of the Carolinas
- Piedmont Reproductive Endocrinology Group
- Reproductive Endocrinology Associates of Charlotte
Please note: This is not an extensive list of surrogacy clinics, but our professionals are happy to provide additional resources when you contact our offices.
