Last year, an immigrant from Ecuador who had overstayed a tourist visa agreed to carry a couple’s embryo in exchange for $65,000, according to a lawsuit she later filed against her agency, Genesis Egg Donor and Surrogacy Group, which she found through online advertisements.
Page Tofighi, the CEO of Genesis, said, “Genesis respects everyone’s personal circumstances, including decisions related to public benefits, and ensures that participation in surrogacy is always voluntary and informed.”
In its response to the lawsuit, Genesis denied her allegations.
Genesis has a rigorous screening and oversight process and has a policy against working with surrogates who are not legal immigrants, Tofighi said.
He added that Genesis is committed to ethical practice and transparency.
