Court appointed amicus not interested in the facts. AVOID!!!

Claudia was the amicus involved in my grand daughter custody battle. Even when presented the facts (3000 to 4000 Facebook and twitter entries including photos) showing that the mother was "unfit" she still insisted that the child be placed with the mother. She even made several trips to the mothers h...ome which reeks of dog urine and can only be compared to a poorly run dog kennel. Even with the evidence presented she made her choice after a 30 min in office visit with my son. At that point through the advice of our attorney we elected to take this battle to a jury trial. The evidence was presented and the trial was 6 days, they had the stand for 4 1/2 days we had it 1 1/2 days before it went to the jury. 1 hour later the jury had reached a verdict. My son was given custody and geographical rights. My beautiful grand daughter is now living a safe healthy life with us in Pennsylvania. Regardless of the facts, she was more concerned about keeping the child with a druggy mother in Texas than allowing the child to be placed in a safe and healthy environment in Pennsylvania.
