[WSBARP] Appointment of GAL (court visitor?) for minor trust beneficiary Spokane County

[Karen Cobb]

Good afternoon:
Client is trustee in a contested trust matter in which three beneficiaries are minors.  I need to get a GAL (is this a court visitor now?) appointed to represent the kids for review/approval of our final accounting and report/plan for distribution.

I see there are forms on the court website but cannot tell whether there is a truncated procedure for just appointment of a GAL/visitor for a minor. https://www.spokanecounty.gov/1167/GuardianshipConservatorship-Forms

I also see a list of GALS, but it appears to only be for adult guardianships. https://www.spokanecounty.gov/DocumentCenter/View/4326/Court-VisitorGuardians-Ad-Litem-GAL-Title-11-Registry-List-PDF

Questions:
Is there anyone that practices in Spokane County that can confirm the process and/or provide the proper forms?

Are there any practitioners that serve/would be willing to serve as GAL/visitor in this case?

Thank you.
