Coastal Surrogacy

Coastal Surrogacy, formally Coastal Surrogacy LLC, is a for-profit, full-service surrogacy agency based in Costa Mesa, California. It is an active business with a small team of roughly six people, and appears to be family-run: two long-tenured principals, a chief financial officer and a director/consultant, are associated with the company, and a Mr. John Dean is listed as the principal contact on its Better Business Bureau profile. Industry directory listings place the agency's founding in the mid-2000s.

On its website, the agency describes itself as assisting people from all over the world on their path to parenthood through surrogacy, offering what it calls a comprehensive surrogate mother and consulting program. As a full-service agency, it coordinates the journey rather than focusing on a single piece of it, and it works with LGBTQ+ intended parents as well as intended parents living outside the United States.

Its surrogate program is geographically focused: gestational carriers are expected to live locally in Southern California, which keeps matching, monitoring and in-person support within the agency's home region. Intended parents, by contrast, may come from anywhere. Detailed eligibility requirements for surrogates, along with fee and compensation information, appear further down this page.

The Better Business Bureau lists Coastal Surrogacy LLC at its Costa Mesa address with an A+ letter rating; the business is not BBB accredited. The agency can be reached by phone at (949) 222-1220 or by email at info@coastalsurrogacy.com.
