Wise Law's Family #LawFact of the Day: What is the role of the Office of the Children's Lawyer (OCL) in Ontario Family Law Matters?


In difficult parenting cases, a Court may request that the Office of the Children’s Lawyer (OCL) become involved to investigate and make recommendations to the Court or to provide legal representation for a child.

The OCL is an Ontario government agency that employs lawyers and social workers.

It works to provide independent information to the Court about a child’s needs, wishes and legal interests.
