Ah! We may have got one...A NYC-area Lawyer who actually will Fight CPS.

I have to maintain my suspicion, because so-called "child protective" "services" (CPS) basically owns the practice of "law" in the New York City area. Conservative, Constitutionally-minded lawyers typically get black-listed and get NOWHERE in extreme liberal environments, like Rockefeller's New York.

But these guys at least sure sound like they mean business:

Of course, it may be strictly ABOUT the "business," but the name of the website is encouraging, as is this excerpt:

"We represent clients on all legal matters related to or arising out of Child Protective Services (CPS) / Administration for Children's Services (ACS) investigations or proceedings. Attorney Elliot Schlissel and his associates will be your advocate at all stages of a legal proceeding for neglect or abuse of your children, whether the allegations stem from use of corporal punishment, negligent parenting, sexual abuse, or other allegations. We represent clients, whether working directly with CPS / ACS officials, advocating for you in Family Court hearings, or defending you in a criminal prosecution tied to an allegation of child neglect or child abuse. We also help men and women respond to concerns that alcohol or substance abuse may constitute child abuse or child neglect."

But perhaps the best thing of all for stressed and indigent families (just the kind that CPS loves to target,) the initial consultation is FREE. Even if you end up in CPS's cross hairs, and can't afford to, in the end, actually retain these guys, that free consultation just might wind up being a gold mine of free information.

You could ask a lot of important questions that could wind up being very helpful, such as:

1. What kind of motions would you suggest we file in this case?
2. What "family court" judges are known to be particularly pro/con CPS (if any)?
3. Which CPS offices and/or supervisors have been proven corrupt/lying/thieving before?
4. What dastardly tricks has local CPS pulled before against families?

In other words, try to get the "lay of the land" and pick their brains for everything and anything that might help you with your case, whether you end up keeping these guys on the case, or not.

Every little piece of information, or "leg up" you can get when dealing with the rapacious bureaucrats at CPS can only help you and your family.

Good luck, and GOD BLESS you and yours.

Be and stay "wise as a serpent, and harmless as a dove."
