There were a couple situations back in 2003 that are similar to this, if anyone cares to search the archives.
The only advice that I can add to prevent a situation like this is,.......
Not only research your agency but research the folks they work with in Guatemala. I get PMs almost daily inquiring about my agency but rarely does anyone ask about my facilitator or attorney. That is just as important,...heck maybe even more. You can complete an adoption if your agency pulls out or shuts down but if the fac in Guat or attorney close down shop it would be incredibly difficult to complete the case. It can be done, but will likely add heaps of time and cost.
With that said, I want to say that anyone who is or will be caught in the middle of this situation is in no way at fault. There is absolutely nothing to feel guilty about and I did not intend to suggest they didn't do their homework. I'm just throwing that out there for future Afamilies to consider.
