Today on the Texas Family Law Insiders podcast, we are sitting down with attorney Rocky Pilgrim.
Rocky has been practicing law for over 18 years and owns Pilgrim Law Office, P.C., a family law firm with offices in Tomball and Richmond, Texas. With a focus on children, Rocky regularly serves as an amicus attorney in family law cases.
Rocky says that an amicus is most appropriate when you have a high conflict situation and the parents just cannot agree. One is saying black and the other is saying white, there are major communication issues, and the kids are stuck in the middle.
We’re sitting down with her today to discuss the role of an amicus attorney and when it’s appropriate to request one for your case, as well as:
The key differences between an amicus and an ad litem
The most important role of the amicus attorney
Five things an amicus attorney must do, their primary goal, and how to avoid the “gotcha” at trial
