At Short Law Firm in Plano, Texas, we help people who are being investigated by CPS. If you have been approached by CPS, contact an attorney now to protect your rights.

How We Can Help You

At Short Law Firm, we help parents who are dealing with Child Protective Services. If you have been contacted by CPS, you may be asked to attend a CPS hearing. Any number of topics may be addressed, including those of abuse and neglect. The subject of foster care placement may also come up.

Child Protective Services personnel can be aggressive in their approach. If they suspect child abuse, child neglect, alcohol or drug abuse, or other potentially damaging situations, they won't hesitate to remove a child from the child's home. Unfortunately, CPS doesn't always look beyond the allegation - even though parents may have an explanation that may clarify the accusations.
