Katharina Dellschau
Counsel for the Child
On my website you will find information about my work as a guardian ad litem. My task is to determine the best interests of the child
and to assert them in the context of court proceedings.
In my role as an advocate for the child, I see myself as being primarily committed to the child.
In discussions with the child, I act as his or her "advocate", so to speak, and sensitise the adults involved to
the perspective and interests of the children concerned.
At the same time, I convey the subject, process and possible outcome of the procedure to the child concerned
from the adult point of few in an age-appropriate manner.
The best interests of the child comes first.
I can also appeal in the child's interest but without being the child's legal representative.
Who do I work for?
I receive my nomination and appointment as a guardian ad litem from the local courts or the competent family courts.
The appointment of a guardian ad litem can also be suggested by parents, youth welfare offices, the child
protection agency, independent associations as well as lawyers and all persons involved in the child
or youth case.
