    The exact meaning is: Guardian Ad Litem and you can find this in legal texts as...
    by and through his GAL
    or
    by and through his G.A.L.
    What is a Guardian ad Litem?
    A “guardian ad litem” (GAL) is a person the court appoints to investigate what solutions would be in the “best interests".
    When a person involved in a suit cannot adequately represent his or her own interests, the court may appoint a guardian ad litem to protect the person's interests. Unlike typical guardians or conservators, guardians ad litem only protect their wards' interests in a single suit. Generally, courts appoint guardians ad litem to represent legal infants and adults who are actually or allegedly incapacitated.
