Will the judge listen to a kid

Asked by a user in Ocala, FL - 4 months ago.

You should hire an attorney to Motion the Court to appoint a Guardian ad Litem. In the counties I practice in, the Judges generally do not allow children to testify. There is a possibilty that the Judge will speak with the child in camera (privately in their chambers), but it is much more likely that a Guardian ad Litem would be appointed to testify on your child's behalf. I wish you the best of luck.
