NEW YORK CITY ACS DEFENSE LAWYER

 One of the toughest tactics that an ACS worker will take with a family is to demand that parent leave the home without a court order. ACS workers routinely order parents out of the home simply based on allegations made by the worker. ACS workers do not have the legal power to remove a parent form the home yet they do so routinely. They must obtain a court order. If an ACS worker is trying to remove you from the home, contact us at our hotline at 918-519-8417.

  NYC ACS Lawyer Announces Winning Right to Counsel Motion ACS Tried to Stop Parents From Having Attorney Present at a Visit. The Court Sided With The Parents By: michael discioarro BROOKLYN, N.Y.  -  Sept. 21, 2021  -  PRLog  -- The Right to Counsel is a sacred right enjoyed by all Americans. It is guaranteed to us by the U.S. Constitution and the New York State Constitution. ACS filed a motion to prevent the parent's lawyer from appearing at home visits virtually. ACS alleged that it was not critical for the attorney to be present. In the case of Matter of K.D. N.A-05773-5/ 21, the Hon. Judge  Eelenor Cherry from Queens Family Court denied their motion. "At any one of these visits, the result can be an application for removal, and how the visit went. To say that these court visits are not critical, the Court disagrees." Judge Cherry held in her ruling after oral arguments. "We're very happy for the client, they have been wrongfully accused and now AC...

  ACS is putting families in bug infested shelters hurting kids. This shelter is at Front Hotel. This is awful and children should not be subjected to it. FIGHTACS.COM BROOKLYNACSLAWYER.COM BROOKLYNACSATTORNEY.COM

 One of the most common ACS tactics is to roam a building where the target family is and ask the people in the building and the neighborhood if they have any complaints about the target family. If anyone says anything negative, it will be placed in the ACS report and taken as truth by ACS. This is a complete violation of a parent's rights. It is something that we have brought to the attention of the ACS Commissioner and have been ignored. The goal of ACS is to attack families. If your family has been targeted by ACS, don't speak to the ACS worker.  Contact our hotline at 917-519-8417. FIGHTACS.COM STATENISLANDACSLAWYER.COM BROOKLYNACSLAWYER.COM

 The goal of ACS workers is to get parents to comply. To do this they often use time pressures to achieve this goal. They will often call a parent in the morning while the parent is at work and tell them to be at court at 2 pm. These is no advance warning or any scheduling of any kind. They will make late night visits and demand that the children be woken up so they can insect them. The ACS workers will often blame all of their actions on their supervisors and try to play good cop with the parents. The goal is to put unrelenting pressure on the parents so that they follow ACS orders. ACS workers will issue orders to parents without any judicial authority.If you have been targeted by acs, contact us ay 917-519-8417 and stand up for your rights.

 ACS is weaponizing Covid-19. Courts routinely give parents visitation with their children in the vast majority of cases. Now, because of the Governor's executive order requiring quarantine from certain states, ACS is denying access to children if a parent has traveled out of state. even if they do not have Covid. This is simply another way that ACS has manufactured to keep families apart in hopes of destroying the family bonds and keep children in foster care. This must stop. If your family has been targeted by ACS, contact us at 917-519-8417. STATENISLANDACSLAWYER.COM FIGHTACS.COM

 The ACS worker will inform parents that they must attend a Child Safety Conference.(CSC) They are also told that no lawyers are allowed at this conference and it cannot be recorded in any way. The CSC is a vehicle designed to obtain more information from the parent and give ACS a stronger case in court. Nothing will be recorded, thus the ACS workers can tell the Court anything they wish about statements that the parents made. IN the vast majority of cases, after the CSC a court case is filed against the parents. IN order to increase stress on the parents it usually happens the same day. The goal of the ACS worker is to place as much pressure on the parents so that they comply. You will also be provided a "parent advocate" in the CSC. This person is used by ACS to give the parent the feeling that someone is on their side. In reality, this is a person who works with ACS every day and must follow the ACS policy of attacking the parent as much as possible. Often the person works...

Failing kids De Blasio’s pratfalls on the national stage have been comic; his failures here in the city tragic. We’re thinking particularly of the children who died thanks to mismanagement at the Administration for Children’s Services. De Blasio took office vowing to fix ACS, yet his pick to run it, Gladys Carrión, abandoned key management practices, such as agency-wide video conferences where top staff reviewed casework best practices. Other progressive politicians, including then-Public Advocate Letitia James, issued reports warning that ACS was going downhill; the mayor ignored them. FIGHTACS.COM Then children who’d been on ACS’s radar — in homes the agency had been called to investigate — started  dying from abuse . Zymere Perkins, 6, beaten to death. Jaden Jordan, 3, same fate.

Governor Cuomo moved to defund a useless and badly managed program run by ACS to manage juvenile delinquents. There have been hundreds of escapes and the program replay highlights the incompetence that has become the hallmark of ACS. At each step of the child protection process, ACS fails. They fail the children who are really in need and they attack good parents who have done nothing wrong. However, ACS is never held accountable. ACS workers are rarely fired and the Mayor keeps bringing in one commissioner after another to appear as of he is doing something. We, as the people of NYC deserve so much better.  Read the story here. BROOKLYNACSLAWYER.COM BROOKLYNACSATTORNEY.COM

To falsely report a crime or event to a public entity is a crime in New York State. See Penal law 240.50(4). ACS receives thousands of calls a day about suspected child abuse in New York City. Many of them are demonstrably false. In fact in once case, our client's accuser told the ACS worker that she lied and would continue to make false calls. So what does ACS do about these false reports? The answer is absolutely nothing. ACS has one agenda- to accuse as many parents of child abuse and keep their funding and make it appear as they are protecting children. They fail at every step. The children who are in real need are ignored and good parents are attacked in order to  pad the ACS statistics. The names of the dead children still haunt us today. If ACS contacts you, do not speak to them. Contact an attorney as soon as possible. WWW.NYCACSLAWYER.COM WWW.BROOKLYNACSLAWYER.COM WWW.BROOKLYNACSATTORNEY.COM

Our client P.M is truly a wonderful father. That did not stop ACS from attacking him for months with simply no evidence. It took Brooklyn family Court Judge Jacqueline Williams to stop them. After hearing all ACS had to say, Judge Williams dismissed the ACS case and dismissed the petition. ACS had lied so much throughout the case and finally the lies caught up with them in court. We should be thankful we have honorable judges like Judge Williams on the bench who stand up for good parents. BROOKLYNACSLAWYER.COM

ACS contacts parents in two ways. For the most part, they call and try to set up a time to visit the home. In some cases, ACS workers will make a surprise visit to the home to try and catch the parent off guard.  The goal is to catch the parent in a moment of panic so the parent will speak to them and let them in the home. Once you refuse ACS access to the home, they will usually contact the police and come back with police officers. The officers will then in turn try to convince you to open the dorr and make things "easy on yourself". If you still refuse, the ACS worker can go to a Family Court Judge and ask for an order letting her into the home. This is done as a matter of routine and it does not take much for Family Court Judges to issue these orders. For the most part, most Family Court judges are deathly afraid to say no to ACS, so they simply sign off on any ACS request.  The ACS worker will then come back with a warrant from the judge. If an ACS worker wants acce...

We get this question from many clients and parents who are desperate to hold ACS accountable. The answer is YES, but there are many obstacles. First, since ACS is a city agency, notice must be served withing 90 days. Hoever, if you are suing in federal court some of these time limitations do not apply. We are often asked what type of lawyer would file this lawsuit. These types of cases are considered civil actions and are mainly brought by personal injury lawyers and lawyers that have experience in suing New York City and its agencies. Usually, these cases are done on contingency fees. That means the client does not pay the attorney, but will share in the winnings if any. So, your case must be one that a civil attorney sees has a good chance of winning. If you decide to contact one, before you meet them, try and prepare a detailed package about your case for him to review. This will make things easier for the attorney and you will receive a faster answer on how successful he thinks yo...

It has been reported that ACS investigated, Cesar Gonzales Mugaburu , nine times and did nothing to stop him. There have been countless families injured by the failed agency. If they cannot be trusted to find a child molester right under their noses, how van they be trusted to investigate parents in cases of neglect. Each child was in the custody of this monster because ACS believed the parents were abusing the children. Our Law Office has seen so many cases of this it truly saddens us.

ACS lawyers have standard lies that thy tell parents in order to get them to cooperate. Here are the top five. 1. This investigation will last 60 days. 2. I need information to close the case. 3. This is all a formality. 4. We need a drug test to close case. 5. You don't get to have a lawyer for this. For these reasons you should never speak to an ACS worker without an attorney present.

The most common question we get from our clients is; why is ACS doing this to us? The simple answer is that ACS is a highly dysfunctional agency with incompetent leadership that is allowed to abuse parents in NYC. IN addition to this callous incompetence, ACS must keep its numbers up in order to justify the billions of dollars it receives from the city and state. Just like every organization, ACS must justify its existence. This is accomplished by accusing as many parents as possible of abuse and then putting thise parents into "services". At the end of the year ACS writes a report and states that they have helped all of these families and their funding should be increased.  The more parents they "help" the more money they receive, thus keeping their jobs secure. This is why we see many cases being shared b y ACS workers because in places like Manhattan there is not enough of a caseload to support the staff. It's a smoke and mirrors game that ACS workers play to...

When ACS workers interview children about child abuse they try to coach the children as much s possible. The reason we know this is that many children will report back to their parents that the ACS worker was trying to have them make statements against their parents. This is truly disgraceful. ACS workers will also take anything the child says against the parent as the truth. No matter how troubled the child is. ACS calls these statements disclosures. They are treated as gospel and parents are dragged into court based solely on the child's statement.

We often hear from our clients that they have tried to prove to ACS that they are good parents and ACS workers simply will not listen. The reason for this is very simple. The ACS agenda is to attack as many parents as possible and place as many children as possible in Foster Care. This both secures their jobs and their funding. parents usually find that ACS workers simply lie about what the parents or children have said to ACS. The solution is to speak to an attorney BEFORE speaking to ACS workers. This assures that your rights will be protected and your children will not be removed. Brooklynacslawyer.com

ACS is one agency consisting of lawyers and ACS workers. However, when a case is filed against a parent in court, this becomes a real problem. The ACS workers will continue to speak to the parent as they are trying to help them, while the ACS lawyer in court finds ways to attack them, The ACS worker will often report back to the ACS lawyer negative things about the parent. This is the equivalent of a detective arresting you and weekly visiting your home while your trial is going on. ACS workers are trained to avoid the fact that clients have lawyers. The best remedy for this is to refuse to speak to ACS workers about the case without your lawyer present. You can learn more at BROOKLYNACSLAWYER.COM

The ACS worker has a standard lie that they will tell a parent. This is called the 60 day lie. The ACS worker will tell the parent hat the investigation will only be open for 60 days, as per state law. In fact, the ACS workers will keep the investigations open for much longer. The main reason for this is trying to find something to blame the parents for. ACS will keep digging until they find anything they can attack the parent with. This lie is simply used to bring the parents guard down which then allows the ACS worker to come in and make more demands. Do not fall for these falsehoods by the ACS worker.
