High Swartz LLP’s Caitlin Foley Joins MCAP

High Swartz LLP is pleased to announce that Family Law Attorney Caitlin Foley has joined the Montgomery Child Advocacy Project (MCAP) as an advocate. Her involvement reflects a continued commitment to providing legal support to children in need in Montgomery County.

Caitlin will handle criminal and dependency cases referred by the courts and various agencies. Her role is to provide legal advocacy for children who are victims of abuse or neglect, ensuring their rights are protected.

Caitlin’s dedication to family law and domestic litigation has earned her an empathetic and supportive reputation in the field. Caitlin focuses her family practice on divorce, custody, support, adoption, and mediation. She is a certified mediator with the American Council of Mediators and founded the mediation practice at her previous firm.

MCAP was founded in 2004 by District Attorney Ferman and Court of Common Pleas Judge Wendy Demchick-Alloy to address the gaps in the criminal justice system that often left child abuse victims unprotected. The organization ensures that the legal interests of abused and neglected children are defended.

MCAP’s advocates receive specialized training and volunteer their time to represent children involved in the criminal justice system. They are dedicated to protecting the best interests of the children they represent.

The organization receives requests for assistance from various sources, including the Montgomery County Courts for Protection from Abuse cases, the District Attorney’s Office, the Public Defender’s Office, the Office of Children and Youth, police departments, hospitals, and private social agencies. The Montgomery County Bar Association also supports MCAP.
