Business ProfileforAngel Adoption

Im posting this to warn consumers against using this agency as well as for expectant mothers looking to use this agency to have your child adopted. My ex husband and I signed an agreement with Angel in 21. We learned there were mental health issues & ended our marriage. Which stopped the adoption process as it wouldnt be a stable environment for a child. We let Angel know & were told we could provide psychologist documentation & be refunded. - 23: I moved back to IL & thought I would revisit adoption on my own & contacted Angel. They told me that my ex would have to sign rights to the contract + funds spent to pursue on my own. My ex did that for them & got it notarized. I spoke with LCFS for more than 1 hr about the home study. I spoke with my therapist who helped me after my divorce as well as with my therapists who worked with my ex & I. Both advised it wasnt a stable environment for a child as Im still struggling w/ PTSD, depression etc.I let Angel know & asked them to refund me bc of the psychologist advice. I sent them the email from the psychologist + text from my current psychiatrist. They responded with we cant give a refund based on opinion of a psychologist. Which in itself is wild. I asked them to clarify & they pivoted to well we need you to be denied a home study first. I asked them to clarify they wanted to me to do a home study knowing I wouldnt be approved for a home study and the cruelty & emotional distress that would cause. As well as, knowingly try to get expectant mothers to give their baby to someone w/ mental health issues. I reminded them of the laws against this in ********* did a 180 saying oh sorry for the miscommunication + you can have a refund. Then they came back & said we cant refund you bc the check was written by your ex & the release form he gave us is for time not money. The agreement my ex signed releases the remaining time but also releases the contract to me as well. Which includes the $18,200 fee. -AVOID.
