Child abuse cases are aggressively prosecuted in the State of Florida. If you are accused of a child abuse or neglect crime, you need a criminal defense attorney that is experienced, provides an aggressive defense, and will utilize every legal resource available under the law to protect your rights and freedoms.
A child abuse allegation can arise from many different sources, such as a teacher, neighbor, a doctor, mental health specialist, a spouse, the other parent of the child, grandparents, or anyone that observes a parenting style they they do not agree with. Child abuse claims may be very specific or vague. Likewise, child neglect claims may also be alleged.
While some child abuse and neglect allegations may appear to be valid concerns by the reporting party, all to often false child abuse and or neglect allegations are erroneous or alleged out of spite by one parent against the other. There are also many documented cases where an allegation of child abuse or neglect is made against a parent in contested divorce cases in order to gain an advantage regarding who the child or children will primarily reside with following the divorce.
Simply put, no criminal allegation of child abuse or neglect should be taken lightly. If you are accused of child abuse or neglect, immediately seek experienced legal counsel to protect your rights.
Attorney Adam B. Reiss will listen to your story, examine all of the evidence against you, inform you of how the law applies to your specific case, and inform you of what your rights are, in addition to what the best possible defense strategies may be in your case.
