Can you recommend your adoption agencies or attorneys? UPDATE

We are in the process of researching agencies or attorneys, and I have called or emailed them for info packets.

I have called Gladney, New Beginnings and Spence Chapin.

Does anyone have any others to add? Or tell me if the three I listed are good.

Thank you.

Ladies, thank you for your advice.

My husband and I have decided to go with Wide Horizons. We are very excited and will mail in the application tomorrow.

Are you doing domestic or international? I have an attorney I can recommend if you are interested in private domestic adoption.

We used Wide Horizons in Oyster Bay www.whfc.org for our international adoption.

Michele, I just checked out their website and am very impressed. I applied for an information packet.

What did you like about them, and would you use them again?

If we were going to adopt another child then we would use WHFC again. Our social worker, Charlotte, is in Oyster Bay and is wonderful. The majority of the team was very helpful and always available for calls.
There were a few issues surrounding our adoption- NOT because of the agency- and they helped us handle it and were very caring.
We adopted Jason from Ethiopia and it is a wonderful program.

I adopted internationally, but have experience with both New Beginnings and Spence Chapin if you'd like to FM me. You may have already moved forward with somebody else, as this post is somewhat old, but if you are still in need of assistance, let me know. Best of luck to you!
