Okay, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the adoption attorney IS the one that wrote up the adoption papers, but he's not the judge that decides what to write in his orders. These are two separate documents. The judge can "order" anything he wants, if he "thinks" that's best. (Even if you asked for the visitation to stop.) Don't shoot the attorney just yet.

Now, you may have some recourse. What exactly does the court order state in regard to continued grandparent visitation post adoption? With this, we can know exactly how to proceed. You can PM me the exact wording written on the order and I can give advice regarding this.

PS- I'm not an attorney, but with all of our legal situations regarding adoption, I've gotten very good at reading adoption law and how to work within the legal limits.
