Family Law Attorney Protecting the Interests of Children
When divorce is treated as a war, children are frequently the casualties. To protect a child involved with contentious family law matters, it is important that he or she has an advocate in the courtroom.
At the Law Office of Yvette P. Fallon in Stamford, Connecticut, we may serve as this advocate. We can represent children involved in family law proceedings, serving as either an attorney for a minor child or as a guardian ad litem. We will make sure that children have a voice in the courtroom, and that their best interests are considered at all times.

Providing Legal Representation of Children during Divorce or Separation
Far too often, children become objects in family law disputes. Sometimes one parent will seek to alienate the other parent, damaging the parent-child relationship. Decisions made during a divorce have life-long implications. This isn't fair to the parent who is being alienated or the child.
During a divorce, when parents adamantly disagree about fundamental issues will affecting the child's life, such as custody and visitation, a guardian ad litem may be appointed to represent the child's best interests. Attorney Fallon accepts appointments as guardian ad litem.
In other cases, the child's interests may be best served with separate legal counsel. Attorney Fallon may also serve as an attorney for a minor child, again, working to protect the child's interests.
Legal representation of children can ensure that they are considered, even when family disputes turn bitter. Contact our offices today through email or call us at 203.356.0192 to discuss your concerns.
