Common questions

How can a Philadelphia family use Stand With Meg?

Take the My Stand With Meg survey to add a Philadelphia, PA case to the public registry, search the court actor registry for judges, attorneys, GALs, evaluators, and agencies, and view the public report for Pennsylvania totals and quotes.

Does Stand With Meg recommend specific Philadelphia attorneys?

No. Stand With Meg is a public registry and report, not a lawyer directory and not legal advice. Families use it to see the pattern, point to data, and decide what to do next on their own or with their counsel.

Will my Philadelphia case become public the moment I submit it?

Only the parts you allow. The survey supports anonymous, first-name-only, public, and data-only options. Court actor names follow the existing independent-family threshold before they become public.

What if my case involves a Pennsylvania agency or CPS?

Child welfare and CPS cases are part of the same registry. The report separates due process concerns and pattern indicators so child welfare and family court cases can both be tracked.

Stand With Meg is not legal advice. This page links to a public family rights registry, report, and court actor record. It is not a directory of attorneys and it does not represent any specific lawyer, court, agency, or jurisdiction. If you or your child are in immediate danger, contact local emergency services first.
