COVID-19 – Another Question I have had from People is about Guardian ad Litem’s (“GAL”) and Whether their Investigations are still going on.

Disclaimer:  This is a series of blogs related to the impact of COVID-19 on the court system; in particular, the Massachusetts Probate and Family Court.  This information may be outdated and it is important to look at the court’s website.  Also, different courts have different particularities.  I have gotten this from both speaking to other lawyers’ and the staff at the Probate and Family Court along with Zoom conferences and other articles along with reading the standing orders.

The GAL’s that have been appointed are continuing with their appointments although, they may be using FaceTime, Zoom or some sort of other video capabilities rather than in person visits.
