A five-acre piece of property in northeast Houston that once belonged to a Houston surrogacy company is now owned by a trust that will one day be able to repay families who accuse the company of fraud, according to records.

The deeds have now been put back into their names with help from local attorneys Marianne Robak and Lori Hood, who discovered the suspicious deeds during an investigation for their lawsuit against Houston-based Surrogacy Escrow Account Management or SEAM and owner Dominique Side.

Harris County Real Property Records show several properties deeded to Helen Yancy, who has now been named a defendant in a lawsuit against Houston-based Surrogacy Escrow Account Management, or SEAM, owned by Dominique Side.

More than a dozen new families are now suing Houston-based Surrogacy Escrow Account Management and owner Dominique Side, nearly two months after the escrow firm suddenly collapsed and allegations surfaced that Side stole the money to fund a lavish lifestyle.
