Caregivers may informally be asked to testify in a case or may be served formally with a subpoena requiring them to appear at a court hearing. If you receive a subpoena for a child’s court hearing, contact the attorney who sent the subpoena to you. The attorney will usually wish to speak with you prior to the court hearing about the testimony you will give at the hearing. The other attorneys on the case may also wish to meet with you prior to the hearing to discuss your testimony and have you answer some questions.
