It is not legal in some states, so check your laws before you spend too much time researching this aspect.
Even if you could proceed, legally, I would not advise cutting out an agency. They provide a wealth of protection. I have adopted internationally, know enough to bypass the services of an agency but no way in the world would I do it! My state (KY), thank goodness, requires families to utilize an adoption agency. Before I discovered this state law I was talking to one of the worst facilitators out there who has a history of embezzling money and her timelines usually exceed two years! Ooooohhh she was a sweetheart on the phone and I was falling for *it*.  If you have specific questions I would be happy to answer.
