Buffalo, New York
The law assumes that all parents want to, and do, act in their children’s best interests.
Based on this assumption, parents have the right to raise their children and are responsible for adequately providing for, protecting, and caring for them. However, there are instances when a parent or guardian does not have the child’s best interests in mind, and they fail to provide the support needed to help the child flourish.
As any Buffalo child abuse and neglect lawyer could tell you, allegations of child abuse and neglect can have an extremely negative impact on your life, even if they are fabricated. These allegations can tear your family apart and severely impact a parent’s relationship with their child. If you are facing any sort of allegation, it is important to know what your rights are and how to defend yourself to best protect your and your family’s future.
Our team routinely assists clients dealing with child abuse and neglect issues throughout Erie County, including Buffalo, Amherst, West Seneca, Lancaster, Orchard Park, Grand Island, and more. Tully Rinckey’s dedicated attorneys have helped many individuals maintain and protect their relationships with their children.
Charges of child abuse or neglect are grounds for the state to interfere with these parental rights. When parents cannot meet the responsibilities that come with raising their children, the State has a right to intervene as a matter of public policy. When you or someone you know is facing this situation, it is important to get professional legal help from a qualified family law attorney.
Even the best parents can be falsely accused of child abuse or child neglect by a disgruntled former spouse, another parent, significant other, family member, or neighbor. These charges are serious and should not be taken lightly, even when you know the accusation is untrue. It is not worth the risk of having your career affected or losing your child.
Our child abuse and neglect lawyers in Buffalo can help in a variety of situations, including:
There are many different forms of child abuse and neglect. Child abuse can be any act that endangers or impairs a child’s well-being. Child abuse can be sexual, physical, emotional, or psychological. Child neglect can be any act that deprives a child of their essential needs. As with abuse, there are different types of neglect, such as physical, medical, educational, emotional, and even lack of supervision.
If you suspect that your child has been a victim of abuse or neglect, or if you have been accused of any type of action, it is crucial to act fast, for both your child’s sake and your own.
