Don’t Get Caught
Up in a Fraudulent
Private Adoption Agency

A private adoption agency is licensed by the state or province and provides a variety of services to both the birthparents and the adoptive parents in a pivate adoption.

With a public adoption you will be guaranteed positive and safe results for your efforts, however, you will have less control over the situation and the wait will be extremely long.

So if you are interested in adopting a healthy newborn or you just want to have more of a say in the matter and if you are willing to pay to reduce the waiting period then a private adoption is the way to go. Just be very careful not to get scammed.

I have outlined some of the things you can do in order to avoid becoming a victim of fraudulent private adoption agencies. Hope they help!

How to Find a Legitimate Private Adoption Agency

*The best way to look for a legitimate private child adoption agency is to ask for referrals from trusted sources such as your friends, relatives, or colleagues.

Don't trust secondhand referrals. A credible source is one who has actual experience or contact with the referred adoption agency.

*If you don't know anyone who can make such a referral, the next best thing to do is check your directory and other similar listings. Then check with the necessary government agency to confirm whether or not they truly have the license to operate.

Also check with the Better Business Bureau to find out if they have ever received any complaints regarding the agencies you're interested in.

*Join adoption support groups to receive other reports and valuable information regarding possibly fraudulent private adoption agencies.
