Guardian Ad Litem
What
is Guardian Ad Litem?
A minor cannot be a party
to a lawsuit without assistance.
Therefore, when a minor is a party
to a lawsuit, the court appoints a
guardian ad litem to represent the
minor. |
Who can
be a Guardian Ad Litem?
A guardian ad litem must be a
legally competent adult. Often, a
guardian ad litem is a parent of the
minor. However, a court may appoint a
disinterested person who has no
relationship to the minor if the court
determines that the child's parent is
incompetent or has conflicting
interests. In such cases, the
disinterested person is often an
attorney. Some states require special
training for a guardian ad litem. |
How is a
Guardian Ad Litem selected?
A guardian ad litem is
appointed to represent the interests of
a minor. Therefore, the guardian ad
litem must act in the minor's best
interests. |
What is
the role of a Guardian Ad Litem?
A guardian ad litem is
appointed to represent the interests of
a minor. Therefore, the guardian ad
litem must act in the minor's best
interests. The court in which the
lawsuit is pending will appoint a
guardian ad litem for the minor.
