San Bernardino CPS Misconduct Lawyer

Child Protective Services has the role of ensuring that a child entrusted to its care is placed in a safe situation. CPS must also respect the rights of the parents. If they fail to do either, parents, children, or both may file a lawsuit against CPS, seeking financial compensation.

Skapik Law Group is known for seeking justice on behalf of our clients by using an aggressive legal posture while thinking outside the box. We have fought powerful interests for over a quarter of a century, and we can bring that same level of tenacity to your case.

Skapik Law Group is located at 5861 Pine Ave A-1, Chino Hills, CA 91709, in the Pine Corporate Center. Speak to a San Bernardino CPS misconduct attorney by calling us today at (909) 398-4404.

Our clients know that we will go the extra mile for them while mounting a vigorous legal case. Client Kathleen S. writes: “Mark Skapik and company are very professional, capable, skilled and incredibly knowledgeable in many different areas of law….I would highly recommend this firm for your legal needs.”

While CPS has the ability to take a child from a home under certain circumstances, they must follow the law. They cannot simply take your children away from you for no reason, and you have the right to be heard. Just because CPS is a governmental agency does not mean that they are immune from a lawsuit. You may be able to hold CPS legally accountable and seek damages if they have violated your rights.

*Disclaimer: We only handle CPS (Child Protective Services) misconduct cases involving wrongful removal of children after the dependency proceedings have been completed and the child or children have been returned to your custody. We do not take cases because CPS was called at an inconvenient time, for anonymous or unverified reports, due to disagreements with a caregiver’s decisions, or for routine administrative errors that do not cause significant harm or rights violations. We are not dependency lawyers and do not take active CPS cases.

Examples of CPS Misconduct

CPS can break the law and violate your civil rights in a number of ways, including:

• Exercising discrimination in their decision about whether to remove children from your home
• Entering a home without a warrant to perform a search or without consent on your part
• Retaliating against you for complaining about the conduct of an employee
• Not reunifying your family when it is supported by the facts and circumstances
• Using coercive tactics when dealing with you during the process or acting in an excessively intimidating manner
