Attorney for the Child(ren)
A court-appointed attorney who represents the stated wishes of the child(ren). Unlike a guardian ad litem who acts in the child's best interest by substituting her own judgment for the child's, the attorney for the child(ren) must advocate those causes espoused by the child(ren) and generally not substitute his or her own judgment.
