Understanding CPS Investigations And Proceedings In Texas

When CPS becomes involved in your family life, it must follow strict rules and procedures for conducting an investigation and taking appropriate action. The investigation is very in-depth and often involves:

  • Interviewing children, parents and others involved in the children’s lives
  • Gathering documentation such as medical records and school records
  • Conducting home visits
  • Preparing a thorough and detailed risk assessment

The outcome of the investigation will determine the path forward, which may involve closing the case or transferring the case to another unit for further action. Additional proceedings may involve removal of the child into foster care, court hearings regarding custody and visitation, and, in worst-case scenarios, proceedings to terminate parental rights.

You Have Rights In CPS Proceedings

Knowing and protecting your parental rights is crucial when you’re involved with CPS. You have foundational legal rights that CPS must uphold throughout the process. Among them, you have the right to appeal CPS and court decisions and to make a strong case for your parental rights.

Our lawyers will work diligently to protect your rights and work toward a favorable outcome. Whether that means working toward reunification, appealing an adverse decision or negotiating for a positive resolution, we will help you find the most favorable path forward to respond effectively to the challenges ahead.
