I am currently going through a very similar situation it is still new to me but seems to be promising. Like the person above suggested I would definatly have your friend go to counceling. I am extremely excited and have to remind myself daily that this is not 100% yet, myu friend still can change her mind until TPR. I searched for lawyers in our area who do open adoptions he has been very helpful. you should be able to find a lawyer that will give you a free consult to give you the breakdown of costs and tell you what the process will be for you in your area. I would definately like to keep contact and compare notes on how things are going since our ituations are so similar...
