Maybe you need Adoption Supervisors?? They may be able to help. I'm sure several other people may have other ideas??

I don't think that having an international lawyer will do anything to help you. If you signed a POA, the lawyer working with your agency has been given the reigns to handle the case. Do you know how to contact the lawyer directly?

They are a professional company in Guatemala that assist you in assesing/progressing your case if you feel like your attorney is not doing their job. From what I've heard, they're expensive, but worth every penny!
