Has anyone else already gone through or are going through an experience where the children were appointed their own lawyer section 89 and a clinical assist is working with their lawyer on the case.
I'd love to learn more, share tips etc.
I have gotten no indication from them whether or not they are willing to file a report through affidavit, whether we will be allowed access to the notes etc. I have no idea what is going on now in their investigation, I am afraid to ask and be seen as interfering or stirring the pot.
The children's lawyer does seem to try to interrupt or take charge of any court action next steps, again I thought they are supposed to just be there to give the preference of the children. Not sure why they'd interfere in requests for SC's or to try and adjourn motions etc.
At time of appointment, the children's lawyer said he was adding a clinical assist so that I could cross-examine them at trial but now I read they'd had to agree to file the report in an affidavit, what if they are unwilling?
