Child Protective Services Investigations and CACI

Whether you are at the beginning or in the midst of a Child Protective Services Investigation, you should understand the importance of the case at hand. It is often best to find out your rights relating to the Social and Welfare Institutions Code.

Know that if the CPS social worker finds abuse or neglect in the investigation, the outcome can be devastating for you. Your children may be placed in foster care, leaving you feeling uncertain, and frightened for your child's general well being. One then asks..."what should I do?" Contacting a qualified CPS attorney may assist in your goals.

Being in the system can be difficult and stressful.If you are unfamiliar with the CPS case process, most likely you won't know where to start. For example, you need a copy of your case file. This is something you may be entitled to under the Freedom of Information Act and Privacy Act of 1974.
