What happens before you go court?
You can bring an adult with you for company and support. Ask them if it’s ok for this person to sit beside you during the meeting.
Other lawyers may also want to speak to you. You can suggest a time that suits you best. Again, it’s ok to have someone sit beside you, as long as they’re not a witness too.
When the children’s reporter, the procurator fiscal or the lawyers are asking you questions, you should always tell the truth.
After you have read this website you may still have some questions. They will try to answer them for you.
