Juvenile Dependency
If a case of child abuse or neglect goes to court in a juvenile dependency hearing, with custody of your children at stake, our CPS/CFS attorneys will constantly remind social services that the burden of proof is on them and that our client is legally entitled to a presumption of innocence. At all times, we will advocate and provide proof that your home and your custody is the best place for your children.
Do not speak with a social worker without a lawyer. You have a right to have your attorney present.
Juvenile Delinquency: My Child Was Arrested
As a parent, you want to vigorously defend your child's rights when he or she is accused of a juvenile crime. Do so with an experienced juvenile delinquency lawyer at your side, and together we will defend the rights of your child. Our tenacious defense and compassionate service will combine to see that juvenile justice is served, lessons are learned, and your child's record and rights are protected. Juvenile offenders face juvenile corrections, including juvenile detention and juvenile probation. Don't face these consequences alone.
At The Law Offices of Johnson & Johnson, we also provide legal services to families whose children are facing suspension or expulsion from school as a result of criminal conduct or violation of school conduct codes.
My Child Was Taken Away
When Child Protective Services (CPS/CFS) removes a child from home, those five words are difficult for any parent to have to say. Let your next words be informed by our juvenile dependency attorneys, who will act quickly toward regaining custody of your children when a social worker makes allegations of parental abuse or negligence. We also provide legal defense services in the event of criminal charges of child molestation.
