A Statement From Our Founder, Victoria T. Ferrara

Wondering about Worldwide Surrogacy Specialists, LLC? Our well-respected and thriving surrogacy agency was founded over 20 years ago by Attorney Victoria T. Ferrara who is a member of the Academy of Adoption and Assisted Reproduction Attorneys (AAAA). She handled the seminal Connecticut surrogacy case of Raftopol v. Ramey and argued it before the Connecticut Supreme Court which led to the enactment of the Connecticut Parentage Act, a body of law that protects gestational surrogates and intended parents when they enter into surrogacy arrangements.

The team at Worldwide Surrogacy supports and has always supported the right of a gestational carrier to make medical decisions for herself, and for her to have complete bodily autonomy. The team also supports the right of intended parents to legal parentage of their baby upon the birth of the baby. Worldwide Surrogacy abides by and has always abided by the ethical standards and screening recommendations of the Academy (AAAA), the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) and the Society for Ethics in Egg Donation and Surrogacy (SEEDS).

Expert Legal Guidance for Intended Parents: The Case of Raftopol v. Ramey

Dedicated to supporting all Intended Parents, our Founder & Legal Director, Victoria T. Ferrara, forged a path for legal parentage in Connecticut through the historic Supreme Court case of Raftopol v. Ramey. This landmark decision ruled that an Intended Parent could assume all rights to a child through a gestational agreement, regardless of the genetic connection to the child born to the surrogate.
