Thanks for the advice. I am willing to pay for attny for private adoption. However, I don't know when the bio parent will have legal rights back to assign custody. The bio parent just had their 12 month review and judge gave them the kid back on "extended visit" until the next court case in July where they want to review progress. Then there is one more hearing in August that I don't know what it's for. I think it's the final final review. Does that mean that parent has to wait until August to have right to private adopt through attny, or can they do it now since kid is with them on "extended visits." Secondly, during this extended visit, can we see the kid daily and bond with them. Thus, if bio parent screws up between now and August, then could we make a better case that the kid should go to us verses the original foster parents.
