An initial inquiry does not establish an attorney-client relationship. Please do not send confidential details.
When More Than One Matter Needs Attention
Tell the attorney if there is also a criminal matter or an order affecting family contact. Bring the paperwork from each matter so the discussion does not rely on assumptions about what another agency or court has decided. Sespe Law handles CPS and criminal defense matters and can discuss the scope of support your circumstances require.
CPS and Dependency Matters We Handle
Sespe Law represents parents and guardians at each stage of the dependency process, including situations where CPS is threatening to remove—or has already removed—a child from the home.
