Summary
If CPS has removed your children based on alleged false information, you can request a copy of the CPS report and file a Petition for Dependency Court Review. Consider hiring a new attorney if your current one is not adequately representing you. The California State Bar can help you find low-cost or pro bono legal assistance. Filing a complaint against your court-appointed attorney is also an option if they are not fulfilling their duties.Full Conversation
