Guardian Ad Litem in Georgia Custody: Role, Benefits, and When to Request

A Guardian Ad Litem (GAL) may be appointed under O.C.G.A. § 19-9-3 to represent the child’s best interests.

GALs investigate the case, interview parties, and provide recommendations to the court.

At Chisolm Trimble & Associates, we advise clients on when requesting a GAL can strengthen their case.

GAL involvement can provide valuable insight and credibility in complex custody disputes.

Our attorneys work closely with GALs to ensure all relevant facts are presented.
