We paid our first half upon referral - in our contract it stated that we would not be charged foster care fees unless it was due to something on our part (IE: gathering paperwork for the dossier...) My daughter was in foster care for 16 months and I would have flipped my lid if they tried to charge us that. Were you expecting the extra foster care fees? Our second half was due when we entered PGN - however, our agency never billed us for it, 10 months later they were sending us e-mails for the money, and we ignored them until we were out of PGN. At that point (the 10 month mark, we were KO'd for 6 months and our help wasn't sure if this adoption was going to finish..)

I think your attorney might be trying to get your for extra cash, since adoptions have stopped. I'm sure the financial situation of these attorney's and facilitators isn't as "sweet" as it used to be..
