Vernon Beck Canada Court Watch is looking for anyone who has had experience in obtaining the billing of a children's lawyer to the Ontario Government for services obtained as a Children's Lawyer working for Ontario's Office of the Children's Lawyer.

We have a case we are investigating in which a child's court appointed children's lawyer spent only 10 minutes with the child client in 2 years and refused to respond to the teen's request for information. We suspect that there may be fraudulent billing by the lawyer involved. Anyone who has any information can contact Canada Court Watch. We would also ask that anyone who has had a similar experience with poor performance by a children's lawyer anywhere in Canada to enter the name of the lawyer into the Canadian Registry for Public Accountability website at www.crpa.ca so that the Canadian public can be kept informed of these individuals.
