Hello,

She gave us a few different options. You can do the networking and if you are matched through another agency you would have to pay the other agency expenses plus her fee for lawyer fees and finalization. You could also do your own personal advertising to find a bmom, then pay her lawyer fees and finalization. Our if she found the bmom you pay her all fees for a "full service". Which means she deals with the bmom from start to finish. I knew we didn't want to do our own advertising, I just felt its too risky. A professional would hopefully know what to look for to weed out scammers. We wanted to go on the networking to increase our chances of finding a match, I didn't know how many situations Barbara's office delt with personally. You do pay for the networking and if you are matched through that you would have to pay an agency fee anyway. So I guess its kind of like the same thing if Barbara matches you because you pay the agency fee to her instead, in addition to the other lawyer and finalization costs.

I hope this makes sense!

Sheila
