I don't think agencies or lawyers are under any obligation to inform bparents of finalization when their rights have already been terminated/surrendered. We did it out of courtesy and to see if DD's bmom wanted to meet while we were in town but finalization is typically a formality, not an opportunity to contest. It makes sense that only those parties whose presence is required, namely the attorney, the child and the aparents, are notified.
