Best Answer

The most obvious reason an individual may need to hire a child custody lawyer would be if he or she is the parent of a child who wishes to get or maintain custody during a divorce or other legal case. But child advocates who are not parents can also hire a custody attorney to act in the child's best interest - often the court mandates that this be done, depending on the laws of the jurisdiction.
