My question involves a child custody case from the State of: Arizona. This involves a 22 month old baby girl, my great-granddaughter. My granddaughter is attempting to regain custody of her from CPS, and child is in foster care. She has a hearing coming up for an appeal issue, and this attorney (court appointed) will not return her calls, talk to her, meet with her, or give any help whatsoever. The only time she sees this attorney is at a hearing, with no contact or help before hand. This includes dozens of messages to her secretary, voice mail messages, email messages - all unanswered. Excuses given by secretary are always that she is busy. The appeal hearing is in just two weeks....I am helping my granddaughter, who is 19 years old, assisting with a limited amount of legal experience from my past. How do we go about getting this issue known by the court, and get the help she needs to proceed? I have never been involved with change of representation of a court-appointed attorney before. This is a complicated case, but at this time, this is what we need advice on. I appreciate any assistance anyone can give us. Thank you.
