Who will be in the Court room? (easy read)

Use this webpage if you live in NSW. This webpage explains who will be in the Children’s Court room for your child’s case.

It tells you about the magistrate, your lawyer, your child’s lawyer (Independent Legal Representative or Direct Legal Representative), and the DCJ lawyer.

It also talks about you, your advocate and support person. The page explains if children can go to Court and what choices they can make.
