Guardian ad Litem

Attorney in Carrollton, Georgia: Family Law

Experienced Counsel in Guardian ad Litem Matters

If you have filed for divorce or are party to proceeding to determine placement or custody for minor children, you may need the services of a guardian ad litem. In situations where minor children have interests that need to be protected, including custody and visitation disputes or situations where there are allegations of abuse or neglect, the court may appoint a guardian ad litem to act on behalf of the children and make a recommendation to the court. Whether you are a lawyer whose client needs a guardian ad litem or an unrepresented parent, you want someone with experience, someone who will know how to evaluate all the factors involved and promote the best interests of the child.

At the Law Office of Rita D. Carroll, I have completed the training to work as a guardian ad litem in family law matters in Georgia and have served as a guardian for over two years. I have experience testifying at trial regarding the best interests of minor children in divorce proceedings. Contact my office to arrange a free, 30-minute consultation.

Thorough Representation for Children

When I serve as a guardian ad litem, my principal concern is the best interests of the child. I will meet with the child as well as the parents, getting to know the facts and circumstances of each case, so that I can determine how to protect the welfare of the child. With younger children, I may also meet with day care providers. I will examine school records and any other relevant information to help me put together a beneficial recommendation regarding custody or visitation and what will be in the best interests of the child.

For a free, 30-minute consultation with an experienced guardian ad litem, contact me via e-mail or call me at 770-830-9535. My office is open during normal business hours and evening and Saturday appointments are available upon request.
