Child Abuse & Neglect Attorneys in Nashua

Children are among the most innocent members of our society. Whenever a child is in distress, the natural instinct is to protect the child. Courts are no different. When allegations of abuse and neglect arise, courts seek to find a resolution that protects the child's safety, even if it means removing a child from their parent's care. If you are accused of abuse or neglect, you need to hire an attorney to protect your rights. Our criminal defense lawyers are here to help you. Our lawyers can work with you to keep your rights as a parent or guardian.

Understand Abuse & Neglect Cases

In the state of New Hampshire, abuse and neglect cases are handled under family law. When allegations of abuse or neglect are made against a parent, an investigation is usually launched to determine whether or not the allegations are true. If the state determines that there is sufficient evidence to believe that abuse or neglect has occurred, then a petition will be filed in family court.

Once the petition is filed, a court date will be set, and the parent will be forced to defend themselves against the accusations. Make sure you assign the right criminal defense lawyer to defend your case. Trust a law firm that has experience in family law and criminal law.
