What is CPS?

I've spent countless late-night hours advising clients in need.
Do I really need an attorney?
Facing CPS without legal representation leaves you in a vulnerable position. The consequences can range from losing custody of your children to potential criminal charges and even imprisonment. Allowing me to advocate for you and provide guidance will significantly improve your situation. In cases involving children, individuals may resort to making false accusations, aiming to gain custody, and these allegations can potentially lead to criminal charges. Without the assistance of an attorney, CPS and the County Prosecutor's Office may exert significant pressure and influence, potentially leading to unfavorable outcomes. I'm here to support you every step of the way.
How are CPS Investigations determined?
A comprehensive evaluation is carried out by a social worker, school counselors, police and knowledgeable professionals. This collaborative effort ensures that all aspects of the case are thoroughly examined, allowing for a more informed decision regarding the well-being of the child in question.
