California Juvenile Dependency Attorney
When a social worker representing Child Protective Services (CPS / CFS) makes allegations against you as a parent and takes your children from your home, take decisive counteraction against Child Protective Services with an attorney at the law firm of Johnson & Johnson.
If your first priority is keeping your child in your home, our priorities are perfectly aligned. We will zealously represent your family’s interest in getting through tough times by working through your family’s issues together and with court system.
From our law office in Pittsburg, California, our attorney will not make it easy for Child Protective Services (CPS) or Child Family Services (CFS) to prove that your children do not belong at home with you. If a juvenile dependency case escalates from a detention hearing to jurisdictional hearing to dispositional hearing, Child Protective Services' burden of proof increases at each stage of the proceedings, making it more and more difficult for CPS to keep your children away from you. At each hearing, a lawyer can cross examine witnesses against you, present evidence on your behalf, and call witnesses to bolster your case.
We will advocate for liberal visitation throughout this stage of the process. If we do not succeed at the detention hearing, our next step is a jurisdictional hearing, and finally, a jurisdictional hearing. As experienced juvenile dependency attorneys, we know when and where to best make your case. We will file a motion known as a 388 petition, or JV-180, at any time new evidence or changed circumstances merit the court's attention.
Our juvenile law attorney handles cases involving allegations of sex abuse and physical abuse. We help our clients get the personal counseling they need to better themselves as parents, and improve their standing in court.
The worst case scenario in any juvenile dependency case is arriving at a 26 Hearing (366.26), after which children are placed in long-term foster care, guardianship, or termination of parental rights. Take the steps you need to take to avoid putting your family through this. Begin by contacting an attorney immediately to represent you and your family against the claims of Child Protective Services (CPS / CFS).
We offer free initial consultations by appointment. We will take whatever time is necessary to understand your case, and give your family the representation you deserve. Contact us to move a step closer to getting you family back.
