The Guardian Ad Litem (GAL) clinic represents the “best interests” of children involved in dependency proceedings in the Juvenile Justice system in the State of Florida.

The GAL Clinic addresses constitutional, statutory, and common laws impacting children, including the legal interests of parents and the government and the law’s evolving conception of children’s rights.
