What is the process to ensure that a solicitor for the child is appointed in time for the First Appointment?
It is imperative that a solicitor is appointed to the child in good time for the first hearing. On day one, the court should appoint a Children’s Guardian. CAFCASS will allocate the case and a Children’s Guardian should appoint a solicitor on the child’s behalf by day three. In cases where CAFCASS are not in a position to do this, the court should appoint a solicitor for the child.
