Описание: In this video, I explain how the Massachusetts Department of Children and Families (DCF) handles domestic violence cases and why having an experienced DCF attorney is essential. DCF’s main concern is the safety of the children. They assess immediate risks, the ability of the non-abusive parent to protect the child, and the impact of the violence on the child’s well-being. DCF may develop safety plans, recommend counseling, or, in extreme cases, file care and protection petitions. Early legal guidance ensures your rights are protected, and you receive fair treatment while safeguarding your children.

We will represent you and your children anywhere in the state of Massachusetts in cases involving DCF. This includes both in court and out of court representation.

I will prepare you and your children before the DCF home visit. The DCF home visit may include an interview, investigation, or assessment of you and your children. I will be physically present during the DCF visit. I will also be physically present when DCF meets with both you and your children.

One of the biggest mistakes I have seen throughout the years are parents/caretakers trying to represent themselves in fighting DCF.
