Stacey:
Given your last comment, I would say it's a huge red flag. We were given our attorney's name prior to signing with our agency so we could garner feedback. We were also given both the attorney and facilitator email and phone numbers and were asked to contact first our agency, then our facilitator and the attorney only in an emergency. I thought this was reasonable given the work the attorney had to do.
I would be leery of anyone who refused to give these contact names...if you visit in Guatemala, what would you do in the event of an emergency if you couldn't reach your agency?
I agree with CSW, if something feels wrong, heed that inner warning. You'll deal with these folks for months of your life waiting for the most precious thing on earth: your child.
