In this episode of I Now Pronounce You Divorced, our hosts sit down with Melone Hatley, PC attorney Mandy Mueller, to take you inside the courtroom to explore the vital, but often misunderstood, role of the Guardian ad Litem (GAL) in family law disputes.
When parents butt heads over custody and visitation, a GAL steps in as a neutral fact-finder, gathering evidence, interviewing children and third-party witnesses, and delivering clear, transparent recommendations to help judges make informed decisions.You’ll learn why a GAL’s mission is never to decide what’s “best,” but rather to shine a light on the facts, bridge communication gaps, and bring calm to emotionally charged conflicts.
Tune in and discover how a dedicated GAL can transform parental conflict into constructive resolution.
