This is great information! I just went and looked up the Reg too and then I came back here and saw your post...with the same info I was just reading
DOD Instruction 1341.9 enclosure 2 clearly states 'any other source authorized by the state' and that would be your state licensed adoption attorney!!!!
so you can use a facilitator (if authorized in your state) and you will still have your adoption attorney that handles everything in court for finalization (so the attorney would be the placement agency)
horaay, I'm sure this will make lots of families happy.
I agree, have a good adoption attorney who keeps good records!!
thanks sneezyone for sharing your experience!!!
Chris
