Live Description :

Navigating custody decisions can feel overwhelming, especially when your child’s well-being is at the center of it all. In this free live event, Randi Karmel and Karen McMahon bring clarity to one of the most misunderstood aspects of family court: when and why an Attorney for the Child is needed.

You’ll learn how your child’s voice is actually heard in court, what truly influences judicial decisions, and how different forms of child advocacy can shape the outcome of your case. Randi breaks down the critical differences between an Attorney for the Child (AFC) and a Guardian ad Litem (GAL), helping you understand who is advocating for your child and how their role impacts strategy, negotiations, and trial preparation.

Whether you’re approaching settlement discussions or preparing for court, this LIVE will equip you with the insight you need to anticipate what’s coming, reduce uncertainty, and make informed, grounded decisions that protect your child’s best interests.

This session replaces confusion with clarity—so you can move forward with confidence, knowledge, and purpose.
