In What Way Can a Los Angeles Child Abuse Defense Attorney Help You?

Our Beverly Hills Child Abuse Defense Attorneys can review the list of witnesses and evidence prior to the hearing to assist you in building your case. After reviewing the county’s witness list, a defense attorney can then gather evidence and inquire upon other witnesses to testify on your behalf. It is important to have a Los Angeles Child Abuse Defense Attorney that can assist you in convincing the county that their claim should be withdrawn or changed.

A qualified Los Angeles child abuse defense attorney can achieve this by rebutting the county’s evidence while presenting a strong case. After the hearing, the hearing officer submits their statement and recommendations to the County Director. The County Director will then issue a final decision adopting, rejecting, or modifying the recommended decision within ten business days after the recommended decision is entered.

A person that is not represented and does not know the procedures and requirements during such a hearing could be in jeopardy of not seeing a just outcome. Since your name is on the CACI for a period of 10 years, it is important to hire a qualified Los Angeles child abuse defense attorney to guide you through the process and present evidence showing you should not be listed on the CACI.
