JD-1798A - ORDER APPOINTING GUARDIAN AD LITEM OR ATTORNEY (CHAPTERS 48 AND 938). This form is used by the Wisconsin Circuit Court to officially appoint a guardian ad litem or an attorney for an individual involved in a legal proceeding under Chapters 48 or 938 of the Wisconsin Statutes, which pertain to children’s and juvenile matters. The court completes this form when it determines that a minor, unborn child, parent, minor parent, or another individual (such as someone in military service) requires legal representation or advocacy due to their role in the case. The form records the appointee's name and contact information, specifies whether the appointee is a guardian ad litem or an attorney, and authorizes access to various records relevant to the case—such as school, medical, psychological, law enforcement, or child welfare records. It may also specify the compensation rate for the appointee and include other court-directed terms. www.FormsWorkflow.com
