Yasmine was my and my friend's matchmaker years ago before she started this firm. She did tell us…read moreshe was moving on to start this. She never picked a bad date. I was helping an acquaintance find a matchmaker and found this! What a perfect name!!!! What I learned from each match she made is how much more and many opportunities to love someone there were.

** Two different judges have ordered Yasmine to repay a combined $17,500 in the past 3 months**…read more I have previously posted about my experience with Yasmine, but the information was becoming stale and less-relevant, so I removed that post in favor of this more concise statement regarding the same experience. Today was my long-awaited court date with Yasmine to compel her to pay the refund required by our contract, and I won. The judge ordered her to pay me $9,000. To make the backstory as brief as possible, Yasmine and I contracted in July 2022 for 5-6 matches in 14 months. I initially liked her and do think she has some good matchmaking skills but had the sense that she was overscheduled. She provided 2 matches in the remainder of 2022, but throughout all of 2023, the matches she offered were often well outside of our agreed-upon parameters, had grainy/distant/sunglasses-only photos, and in at least two instances were actual catfish. Her communication also dropped off with various excuses such as "emailing the wrong Erika," falling ill, or having "lost her voice" and unable to talk on the phone. Even still this was not a big problem. I was patient with her, mostly because she had already collected a substantial fee from me, but I was also busy myself. However, when 2024 came around, I reached out to her multiple times for simple updates with no answer. Then when an entire month went by with no word from Yasmine, I decided she was either too busy or simply not interested in working with me and asked for a refund, and she agreed. All still not a problem! We had cordial negotiations to start, but things deteriorated rapidly when we could not agree on the refund amount so at that point I figured the best option was to let a judge decide. And that he did to the tune of $9,000 in favor of myself. I am happy for the folks who have had good luck with Yasmine recently. I'd like to think the experience with me inspired her to improve on her self-admitted lacking communication skills. However, to anyone considering hiring Yasmine today, I suggest you consider the following: Although required, her business is not registered in the city of San Francisco or the State of California. This means that there is no official mailing address on file to accept service of process. If for whatever reason you and she are not a good fit, ask yourself: how will you get your refund if there is nowhere to serve court papers? She lost to me today, and this review is about my experience only, but there are *public* court documents available with similar stories - in particular one in Nov 2025 where Yasmine was ordered to pay $8500. That's $17,500 that the courts have ordered Yasmine to repay clients in the span of 3 months. Let's not forget 5 stars for the San Mateo and San Francisco County Superior Courts!

It was all due to the work I did with Soniyah that I was able to open my heart enough for this person to come into my life.

It's a beautiful thing to get to work with Soniyah through this process. She meets us right where we are and gives us tools to help us keep growing as individuals and as partners. I brought my boyfriend into the work pretty much as soon as we met (even when everything was a dream) and now we can keep that dream going, years in.

Family Formation is hands down THE BEST business I've ever found on Yelp and I'm going to be…read morecounting my lucky 5-stars (see what I did there?) every day for the rest of my life that I found them. Thanks to Megan and the Family Formation team my husband and I finally have a daughter! It was a long road to get here (8 years, 2 rounds of IVF, 5 rounds of IUI, candle burning, fertility massage, acupunture, mystical treatments and more hormone injections then I care to remember) but honestly I believe everything happens for a reason, and meeting our gorgeous baby girl I can honestly say it was all worth it. The amazing thing is that after signing up with Megan and Family Formation the "wait" was almost nothing! We retained her services in early January and our baby was born in June! I know this isn't always the case and Megan did a great job of setting expectations so we were VERY surprised when the match occurred. I'm still suffering from a major case of baby brain + lack of sleep but a couple things I wanted to highlight about Megan and her team: 1. Unlike the bigger agencies, Megan only works with a small number of couples. After feeling like just a number in the revolving door of UCSF fertility we knew We wouldn't feel that way with Megan. And we never did. Best example: she gives you monthly updates as to whether you were presented or not. With the bigger agencies you get radio silence for months until the match occurs. Megan's very communicative. She always answered our (many) questions in a timely manner and often anticipated them before we had to ask! 2. After our consult...actually, after our initial phone call, we knew Megan was for us. She's got the perfect blend of kind/compassionate and matter of fact/direct. No BS with Megan. 3. Megan has the unique experience of being a birth mother herself. This means she's got a truly deep understanding of what a birth mother is going through and makes sure she is treated with the utmost respect and compassion. 4. Our adoption was out of state, but Megan found us a lawyer in that state (required for out of state adoptions) and stepped in whenever we had questions so we always felt supported even when we legally had to work with someone else. Thank you Megan (and thank you Yelpers for your amazing reviews that led us to find her). You've truly changed our lives!
