Elite Women Surrogacy LLC, which also goes by EWS, is a for-profit, full-service surrogacy agency based in Irvine, California. Its BBB profile lists the company as a limited liability company that began operating in 2017, with Kenia German as owner and founder.
The agency matches intended parents with gestational surrogates and coordinates the journey around that match, working with outside professionals rather than handling every function in-house. According to its materials, attorneys, escrow companies and IVF centers are brought in for the legal, financial and medical parts of the process, while the agency manages the relationship between the parties and the overall timeline.
EWS says it offers high-end, around-the-clock client service, and its website publishes the qualifications it expects of surrogates along with the packages it offers to intended parents. Those eligibility criteria, along with fee and compensation information and the agency's BBB details, appear further down this page.
The agency's own site features testimonials from surrogates and intended parents describing the team's involvement in their journeys.

Sketchy operation that does not hold to their contact and pay surrogates!
View on Google (opens in a new tab)Such an amazing company I wouldn’t have been a surrogate with any other place than this company. They’ve been amazing and truly have looked after not just me but my best interest always! Kenia is such an incredible person and has nothing but love and warmth for everyone she comes into contact with. I appreciate what this company has done for me and my family. I’m a 3 time surrogate.
