A Motion to Intervene allows a person who is not currently a party to an existing court case to join the proceeding because they have a direct interest in the outcome. In family law, this commonly arises when a grandparent or other third party seeks to assert custody or visitation rights, or when a child support enforcement agency seeks to participate in a case. An optional 30-minute phone consultation is available.
Includes:
Motion to Intervene (with basis for intervention and interest in the proceedings stated)
Proposed Pleading of the Intervenor
Proposed Order Granting Intervention
Certificate of Service
Step-by-step filing instruction letter
Notes:
Intervention as of right vs. permissive intervention are legally distinct — the consultation is strongly recommended.
Turnaround: 3–5 business days from intake receipt (or after consultation if elected).
