In custody disputes, emotions can run high and perspectives may differ. That's why courts sometimes appoint a Guardian ad Litem (GAL) to help protect the child's best interests.
A GAL serves as an independent advocate who investigates the circumstances of the case and provides the court with information and recommendations focused on the child's well-being, safety, and stability.
Their role helps ensure that decisions are made with the child's needs—not the conflict between parents—at the forefront.
