New Jersey DYFS Title 9 Abuse & Neglect Attorneys

Most DYFS Abuse & Neglect cases start with the child (or children) being removed from the home. DYFS than proceeds to file and Order to Show Cause along with a Verified Complaint.

However, those that realize that this is likely the toughest thing they have ever had to do and that everything is on the line, will do whatever it takes to get qualitiy representation which may be the difference between the child coming home or being put up for adoption. Our DYFS abuse and neglect attorneys will fight the system and fight for you to get your children back!

What is abuse and neglect?

A parent commits an act of child abuse and neglect by injuring the child (or allowing the child to be injured), creates or allows to be created substantial or ongoing risk of physical injury, sexually abuses the child, or willfully abandons a child. Abuse can include head injuries, internal injuries, burns, poison, wounds, bone fractures, human bites, sprains, dislocations and torture. Neglect can include inadequate supervision, shelter, food, clothing, medical neglect, malnutrition and failure to thrive. Thus, whether a parent actually committed any of these acts or whether the alleged conduct meets any of these definitions is often the focus of many contested cases. Regardless of the allegation in your abuse and neglect case, our tough as nails DYFS lawyers will protect you and your family in any court in New Jersey.
