Baton Rouge, LA asked in Family Law for Louisiana

Q: I would like to take the pro se route to remove a curator over my son ( suffered a severe TBI). I’m the under curator

His father was appointed curator and I was made the under curator because I’m a out of state resident. He is blocking me from seeing my son or getting medical updates on his condition. I hv been by my sins side since the accident that occurred in September of 2021. When I tried to visit after I found out he was moved overnight from the LTAC to OLOL hospital he has notified security to not allow me to visit with no reason given.

A: Although you indicated you want to go the pro se route, since you posted, I will first reply to suggest that you consult with a lawyer to discuss the pros and cons of going the pro se route in this matter, as well as so the consulting attorney can review the legal pleadings. Furthermore, if the legal pleadings where the father was named curator and you the under curator involved an attorney, then you might consider contacting the attorney and advising of your issues with the curator. It is possible the father does not understand his duties as curator as well as the right of the under curator to be involved. Good luck.
