Would not recommend using as a GAL if you are a father.

Worst GAL ever. She has not taken the time, in a nearly year long court case, to get to know my granddaughter and the people she has been in contact with consistently for the past few years (i.e. her family). She doesn't know the people that have observed my granddaughter with the dad around and since he has been gone. I only gave her a star because I had to. I would not recommend her for any child related cases as of this point in time. Very un-involved and lacks due diligence.

Update- May/June 2019: A year into the case and she never once spoke to anyone on my daughter's side of the family. She only spoke to my daughter twice. She spoke with the ex-husband multiple times and his mother and his gifrlfriend and his girlfriend's mother. I had a voicemail from her @ which point I gave her my work number and email address-even sent her an email- she never responded to any of it. She is very one sided and closed minded. I would not recommend her to anyone trying to get a fair deal.
