                                                                            Our firm frequently receives calls about failed adoptions. If you have experienced one or more of the treatments listed below you may have been the victim of a predatory adoption agency.

                                                                            • Were you sent a referral and asked to send or wire money right away to 'hold' a child?
                                                                            • Were you sent multiple referrals that fell through?
                                                                            • Did you pay for extra fees (foster fees, apartments, drivers, translators, etc) that were unsubstantiated?
                                                                            • Did anyone urge you to send or take extra money to bribe local officials?
                                                                            • Did the birth mother return or change her mind within a week of your travel to bond with the child?
                                                                            • Were you told to never discuss the adoption with anyone from another agency or anyone in the country of the adoptive child or you would risk losing the adoption?
                                                                            • Have you ever been threatened or intimidated by an employee at the Adoption Agency?

                                                                            If you have experienced problems like those listed above in your adoption, you may have been the victim of a fraudulent adoption. Please call our office to have our staff evaluate whether your adoption falls into a category that qualifies for a civil lawsuit.
