Good ones. A few more:

How many domestic parental placement adoptions (not just adoptions in general) have you handled in the past year...three years....five years?

What is your fee schedule?

What professional organizations do you belong to - ideally they should be Quad-A (American Academy of Adoption Attorneys www.adoptionattorneys.com)

How do you handle birth parent termination? Do you come to the hospital?

What are your procedures for after-hours contact? How do we get a hold of you nights/weekends/holidays?

I'd ask for references and check them out, as well as check with the ABA, state bar, BBB to see what if any complaints have been lodged.
