👶 Children's Services at Family Matters Law Group, P.A.
Protecting Children. Supporting Families. Guiding Complex Cases.
At Family Matters Law Group, P.A., our commitment to children and families goes far beyond traditional legal representation. We offer a comprehensive suite of services designed to support the unique needs of children in high-conflict, complex, or sensitive family law cases. Whether we are appointed by the court or hired privately, our work always centers around one goal: the best interests of the child.
🧠 Our Specialized Children's Services Include:
👩⚖️ Guardian ad Litem (GAL)
We are frequently appointed by the court or privately retained to serve as a Guardian ad Litem, a neutral third party who investigates and makes recommendations to the court about what is in a child's best interest. With deep experience in both litigation and child development, we conduct thorough investigations, interview key individuals, and ensure the child's voice is heard in a safe, appropriate, and legally protected way.
🤝 Parenting Coordination
When conflict between parents becomes a barrier to effective co-parenting, our trained Parenting Coordinator can help facilitate communication, reduce tension, and guide families toward workable solutions outside the courtroom. This process is especially useful for families with ongoing disputes or patterns of noncompliance with parenting plans.
⚖️ Attorney ad Litem
In certain cases, children need direct legal representation separate from their parents or guardians. As Attorneys ad Litem, we provide children with their own advocate—someone to ensure their rights and preferences are protected throughout the legal process.
🌈 Special Needs & Complex Parenting Plan Consulting
Families navigating parenting plans for children with special needs, neurodivergence, or unique family dynamics require thoughtful, individualized solutions. We provide expert consultation and support in creating parenting plans that accommodate therapy schedules, specialized care needs, and transitions between households. Our legal and clinical background allows us to collaborate with therapists, educators, and medical professionals to create realistic and sustainable agreements.
⚖️ We Also Represent Parents
We continue to provide comprehensive legal representation to parents involved in custody, visitation, and timesharing matters—especially those involving high-conflict litigation, relocation, special needs, or parallel parenting structures.
