Assistant — DPJ questions

Where: at the clerk's office of the Court of Québec, Youth Division, in your district.
What: depending on your situation — a contestation of the facts alleged in the DPJ's application, a request for provisional measures, or a request to review/extend an order. The clerk's office can direct you to the right form but cannot provide legal advice.
How: present the facts plainly, attach your numbered exhibits (P-1, P-2…), serve the other parties (DPJ, other parent, child's lawyer) and keep proof of service.
At the hearing: stay factual, never interrupt the judge, answer questions directly. Your composure is your best argument.
