NEW YORK CITY ACS DEFENSE LAWYER

 One of the most shocking things that ACS workers subject parents to is going to the child's school and speaking to the child without the parents present. This is an end run around the Family Court Act and a way for ACS workers to skirt the law. The sad fact is that the NYC DOE is equally as dysfunctional and will side with ACS. NYC public schools allow the ACS worker to speak to any child at any time without the parent present. This is difficult to defend against because the parents are not present and the school will not notify the parents that ACS came. Advise your children not to speak to strangers in any context even in school setting without you present.  IF ACS CALLS YOU, YOU CALL US! 24 HOUR HOTLINE 917-519-8417 NYCACSLAWYER.COM BROOKLYNACSLAWYER.COM QUEENSACSLAWYER.COM BRONXACSLAWYER.COM STATENISLANDACSLAWYER.COM

 Once ACS starts an investigation against parents, they often call the parents into a child safety conference. This isa process where ACS can deeply interrogate the parents and try and manufacture a case against them. ACS will have the ACS worker their with their supervisors and a person who will call themselves a "facilitator". They may also have a parent "advocate" present. Attorneys are NOT allowed to attend as per ACS policy. Even of the parents hire one before the conference. Once the conference starts, the ACS worker will begin by discussing the ACS "concerns". The parent will then be asked to give their side of the story. This is an opportunity for ACS to dig into the parents lives and try and manufacture charges against them. There is fair amount of "good cop, bad cop" with one ACS worker being the good cop and the supervisor usually plays a bad cop. the conferences usually last 2- 3 hours and this is the time ACS can put a lot of pressur...

 A very common question is, do I have to speak with ACS workers. There is noting the Family Court Act that mandates that. ACS workers will demand that they speak to them without an attorney. Under New York Law, you have the right to an attorney. The reason are many. To begin with , ACS workers do not record any conversations, this allows them to lie about what the parents have said. Next, ACS workers do not inform parents of the allegations, they merely dig until they believe they found something to use against the parents. The goal of ACS is to remove children and place parents in useless services. Stand on your rights as a parent.

  The Administration for Children’s Services has objected to the legislation requiring child protection investigators to read parents their rights during an initial home visit, similar to the Miranda rights police must inform people of when they’re arrested. City leaders have also objected to telling parents they have the right to refuse investigators entry into their homes without a court order, arguing that state social service law requires agencies to first confirm a child’s safety, before providing parents information about their rights.
