Putting The Best Interests Of The Child First In Every Case
In Indiana, courts and individuals can appoint a guardian ad litem to represent a child’s interests and protect their rights in court proceedings. Especially in cases involving abuse, neglect or contested custody disputes, the court or the parents can request a guardian ad litem.
A guardian ad litem can help in cases involving:
- Child custody and support
- Parental rights
- Guardianships
- Grandparents’ rights
Part of the duties of a guardian ad litem is to provide recommendations to the court to assist in crucial decisions that impact the child’s life. At Longstreet Law LLC, I have over a decade of experience dedicating my career to family law concerns. I will take the time to thoroughly examine your case and circumstances before delivering detailed and thoughtful recommendations to the court.
