Child Advocate

Dear scaredveryconfused:

The court can appoint a guardian ad litem in some legal proceedings. Otherwise, I have no idea what you are talking about. Children should not be a part of the legal process generally. Thank you.

The response posted above is based upon the limited factual information made available and is not intended as a full and complete response to the question. The only reliable manner to obtain complete and adequate legal advice is to consult with an attorney, fully explain your situation, and allow the attorney sufficient opportunity to research the applicable law and facts required to render an accurate opinion.

Where can I find a “children’s advocate?”
Can I take that person with me to mediation or in court to testify?
Anyone know of specifc rsources or people who do this for a living - being a child advocate?

THANKS.
