NEW YORK CITY ACS DEFENSE LAWYER

 This is the ultimate nightmare of any parent. The most frightening thing about the ACS removal process is that it has no rules, boundaries or protocols. The only one who makes the rules is the supervisor that is on the case at that time. Once a child is removed, ACS workers will say and do ANYTHING to keep the child in foster care. As we have discussed, children in foster care are worth tens of thousands of dollars to ACS annually. So when are kids removed? In our practice we have seen certain cases where kids are removed at a faster rate. The first set of cases is sexual abuse cases. If there is any hint of sexual abuse by anyone in the home, ACS will quickly remove the child. Second, physical abuse cases where there are visible injuries. ACS workers will accuse parents of being responsible for every single injury on a child's body. And if a parent does not know exactly how an injury happened the ACS worker will accuse the parents. Those knee scrapes on your child are all your fa...

A recent cried relayed an ACS investigation that was simply horrific. ACS had been called on our client because of educational neglect. When the ACS worker arrived, she started asking about our client's entire life history. Then, the horror started. The ACS worker demeaned that our clients children be disrobed so she could check the children for bruises. Our client's 15 year old daughter was disrobed by a stranger and had to be examined. Also, the ACS worker demanded that the client take a drug test. The call was for educational neglect why was there a need to disrobe a 15 year old girl? This is a classic case of ACS abuse.

One of the most illegal and damaging things that ACS workers do, is when they decide that a parent must leave the home and demand that he/she leaves without a court order. ACS workers will threaten the other parent with the removal of the children if the target parent does not leave. Only a judge has the legal authority to remove a parent from the home. If ACS has demanded that you leave the home, please contact an attorney as soon as possible and stand on your rights. Call The Law Offices of Michael S. Discioarro, LLC at 917-519-8417.

Parents are often shocked to hear that an ACS worker went to their child's school, pulled them out of class and interviewed them without the parents consent. This is an every day tactic that ACS workers employ. Even after they have visited the home, the ACS workers will go to the school in hopes of having the children make statements that they can use against the parents. The goal of the ACS worker is to manufacture as much damaging information against the parents in order to force the parents to enter useless ACS programs. Thus ensuring that ACS keeps being funded.

Elisa W. v. City of New York Plaintiffs:  19 foster children, aged 3 through 16, representing the class of over 11,000 New York City foster children Public Advocate:  Letitia James About the NYC Foster Care System New York City’s foster children are more likely to be harmed while in foster care than children almost anywhere else in the country. Each year, approximately 1,000 New York City children leave the foster care system without a permanent family or connection to an adult upon whom they can depend. Many of them wind up homeless. In New York City, children in foster care spend twice as much time in state custody as children in the rest of New York State and over double the amount of time in state custody as children in the rest of the nation. It takes longer to return New York City children in foster care to their parents than in the rest of New York State and the rest of the nation. Federal data shows that New York City performs worse on this measure th...

NYC ACS Lawyer Announces Return of Child in 1028 Hearing ACS took our clients child away from the hospital upon her birth. After weeks of testimony and outright fabrications from the ACS worker, the child was reunited with her mother. NEW YORK  -  June 3, 2019  -  PRLog  -- The case against N.P was particularly sad. The parents had been ambushed by an ACS worker at the hospital. ACS workers like to attack parents in the hospital after they have given birth because they are in a weakened state and cannot defend themselves. The ACS worker removed the child from the parents custody and would not let child leave the hospital. This is the power that ACS has. The Law Offices of Michael S. Discioarro, LLC filed a demand from a return of the child. This is known as a 1028 hearing. The hearing began and what followed was weeks of testimony before the Hon. Frias-Colon. ACS was adamant about the child not returning to the mother despite there being no imminent risk ...

ACS workers are trained to obtain cooperation from the parent by any means necessary. To that end they will routinely lie to parents in order to get them to comply. The agency is completely dysfunctional, resulting in children dying and innocent parents being dragged through the courts. The ACS worker will lie at every stage of the process. They will lie about the condition of the home, the appearance of the child, the appearance of the parents and most of all, they will lie about what the parents told them. It is crucial that parents not talk to the ACS worker and obtain an attorney as soon as possible. Parents should also make use of a recording device and record the interaction between ACS and themselves. DO NOT TALK TO THE ACS WORKER WITHOUT THE ASSISTANCE OF AN ATTORNEY. FIGHTACS.COM

The latest ACS Commissioner to promise reforms. The truth is that the real power at ACS rests with the upper management team. These are career bureaucrats who show up, and cash their checks. They have no interest in any reform. Despite all of the child deaths, not one has been fired. The Commissioner is a figurehead that cannot effect reform. Thus, the children of our great city will keep dying. FIGHTACS.COM QUEENSACSLAWYER.COM QUEENSACSATTORNEY.COM

ACS divides their cases into two very separate groups. The first group is the ACS investigation cases. These are cases where no court action has been taken yet and ACS is simply "investigating" the parents. This is where true lawlessness occurs. The ACS workers are fond of telling parents " you don't need a lawyer, this is not a court case". What the workers skillfully avoid telling parents is that everything that has occurred during this phase will be used against them in court. It is the equivalent of the detective who tells a suspect he doesn't need an lawyer, then walks into court and claims the suspect confessed to him to the crime. At this point, the lawyer is not very effective. Despite state law, ACS workers do not believe parents have a right to an attorney at every stage. The power differential is too great. A parent vs. an ACS worker is not en even match. The next group of cases are the ones where a petition is actually filed in court against th...
