In direct oposition to what Jackie just wrote, the mothers I know who have placed in this century through attorneys/lawyers were lead their by their parents who did not know anything more about adoption than to visit someone legal. In these seven or so cases, the attorney represented both the adoptive parents AND the birth mother. The birth mother did not pay. Whose "best interest" do you think the attorney was looking out for?
I advise all expectant parents researching adoption to secure their OWN legal counsel, not to rely on the adoptive parents hire.
