Having a divorce or family law attorney is critical if such allegations arise during your divorce case. A proactive approach to the Department of Children and Family Services, police investigators and prosecutors is essential.
If you are asked to attend a meeting with The Department of Children’s Services, do not attend without counsel, and do not sign any papers without approval of your attorney. Before any appearance in court for a child abuse offense, it is vital to be prepared. A judge could issue a protective order which can prevent you from having any contact with your children whatsoever.
Special rules of evidence, statues, policies and local practices often give prosecutors advantages in child abuse cases. If you are innocent, a skilled divorce or family law lawyer is vital to getting this type of allegation dismissed so you can have a future with your own children.
At The Burdette Law Firm we are competent and caring lawyers when dealing with divorce, and will provide excellent legal divorce advice. We give our clients a great deal of information on divorce so they can have the proper understanding of divorce law to make important decisions. Getting divorced is an emotional process and we always strive to ease the stress during this difficult situation. A divorce is also a financial process. The valuations, incomes and sums involved in property division, alimony and support should be carefully reviewed by someone like a Certified Public Accountant to insure accuracy, and to protect you from any attempt to hide assets or income.
