Agency Question's

Hello! I am new here and was wondering if some of you would email with the agency that you used for your adoption from Panama and what you thought about them. We are currently looking at Vieto Carrizo & Diez Attorneys at law. Any one have any info on them? Here is my email address : gallagherclan at sbcglobal dot net

Thank you!
Linda

Hi Brit,
I have a little bit of information as I also was not able to get much and then decided to adopt from China. But we are probably going to do a second adoption and that will be Panama I think. The agency that I am using for my home study listed Vieto Carrizo & Diez as a facilitator. They seem to be very knowledgeable and offer great personal attention. I am sure that they would be glad to answer any of your questions. Here is the website. www.carrizolaw.com Jovana is the person who handles the adoption questions. She is really nice and very competent. This is the only agency that I could find as the others were still in the process of setting up the prgram. You can google search for Panama Adoption and see if any other agencies have gotten their program going. The contact I gave you is a law firm in Panama. They do have a package they will email you if you request it from them. Good luck in your search. And do let me know how things go or if you have any other questions I might be able to answer for you.

We have been using Faith International, located in Tacoma, WA. They work with an established lawyer in Panama who supports families with the legal process on the Panama side. Their web address is

http://www.faithadopt.org/home/programs/panama.

I understand that they have also worked with severral families who started with other agencies that discontinued their Panama Programs partway through the adoption process.
