There is an exception to that and that is where someone has called in and said that there is an immediate and serious danger. Of course it should not be an anonymous tip and you always have the right to ask about that, but the best thing to do and that situation is if they say child one two or three is in danger simply bring child one two or three to the front door and tell them not to say anything but show them to the police and or DCFS and tell them they're perfectly fine and then shut the door
if a CPS with cops show up at my house i tell them sorry im not talking to non of u & u cant enter without my lawyer & case worker said so unit then i see ur ass in court do to this be harassment & other then i will file
Don't forget, while the investigator is talking to you, they're also looking around and taking notes on the condition of the house. Dirty clothes on the floor, dirty dishes in the sink, foul smells, dirty toilet, dirty sink, dirty bathtub. EVERYTHING they can see, hear, and smell will be documented and used against you.

@@dragonf1092 You're assuming that the court is following the law. In many cases, judges will hand down unlawful judgements and then place gag orders on the parents.
Definitely! Most people don't know their rights until after they've already given them up. It's kind of like not realizing the value of insurance until after you've totaled your car. One thing you could do though to help someone else is to send them videos like this to watch BEFORE they need them because parents never know when they'll get that dreaded knock at the door. I hope your situation resolved in your favor.
Same here! My daughter had someone@school of a fight that happened between her and my son. They showed up to my house. I was in the middle of separation with my husband, depressed and overwhelmed. But the ONLY thing they can use against me is that I had dirty dishes, full laundry baskets, and unorganized clutter. I ignorantly gave them permission to come in and take pictures of my house because I knew in my heart that my children were not in any danger, or being neglected or abused! They are coming back Tuesday and we got this house super clean so that they can't use that against me! God has this family!!! My children ain't going anywhere!!! Amen
It is an honor and a privilege to educate. 😁 I'm sorry your ex is putting you through such a nightmare though. Did you see our video on CPS Miranda Rights? ua-cam.com/video/dZQBQ7z6ZKM/v-deo.html
Another great rule is if CPS and DCFS shows up to the front door do not let them come in without a warrant. Answer the questions at the front door that they have to have answered and you can ask them your questions there but it's best not to let them come in the house at all if you can possibly avoid it. If they say they got a court order ask to see it and if they have alleged they get the right to search certain places that only limit them to those places
TRUTH! I'm a 50yr old Gma been raisin' gkid since 2017 (legally, court order, signed by judge, ordered child support by each parent, but zero dollars sent, never once showed up for their court ordered visitation, but want to come & go as they please, late to and/or miss events, celebrations, & bdays... 6yrs of this, and on a visit one day, dad swipes gkid, court ordered habeas returns gkid to us (30days later). NOW we're in MEDIATION w/ FINAL HEARING 2 DAYS AFTER!?!? There's an angle here. I just don't know what it is. What's the end goal, here? What am I missing? My lawyer won't even entertain the idea of termination of parental rights and I don't see how we DON'T have 100% solid evidence for the grounds for termination of parental rights. What am I missing?
Thank you so much for this information. I'm dumb when it comes to law and just let them do w.e. I've been screwed over by complying without knowing my right and now cps is knocking and there's no way I'm letting them break our home. I just hope I can afford an attorney. Gonna have to sell my stuff 😢 but my child is worth more than all the riches. Anyways thank you for helping me keep my child safe! Much love.
"Do you know to answer their questions?" Yes, you say "I don't answer questions". "Do you know what questions you should refuse to answer?" Yes, all of them. "Lets discuss what questions you need to ask them". Only one, "Do you have a warrant?"
If they don't have a search warrant signed by a judge(most of the time they don't), I'm NOT talking to them, or opening the door to them , and I will immediately contact an Attorney
CPS, in it's current state, needs to be torn down to the last brick and rebuilt in a way that doesn't destroy families, cause additional abuse to children, and protects parents' rights.
I wish you were in my area. It’s sickening how victims are made to feel like the bad guy. I don’t know how to help others once I help my son and I⛅️ News stations don’t seem to want to bring this to light…. Victim’s advocates, in my opinion, are sort of useless..
@@lauralei6963 I'm sure there are attorneys in your area who are just as passionate about defending parents'rights as I am. Try calling 5 different family lawyers in your area and ask them who they recommend for CPS defense. You see, a lot of family law attorneys won't touch CPS cases but will instead refer their clients out. I'm sure a couple of names will rise to the top.
Liked and subbed. Everyone need to know this before having children, its part of parenting and preparing. I saw your reply to a comment that said you should have said you dont have to let them in saying you said it in the previous video and its a given, yeah true that but you would be surprised, my coworker really thought when they show up you have to listen. But great video and great job explaining everything l!!
Thanks for the sub! I'm going to do my best to earn your sub with each video. It really is shocking how many parents aren't aware of their rights when it comes to CPS. You heard it here first, but next month we have a new video coming out about new CPS Miranda Rights. 😉

The "no prior consent"interview of a child will ordinarily constitute a clear violation "of the constitutional rights of parents under the 4th and 14th amendment of the U.S. constitution. According to the court (the investigative interview of a child constitutes a"search and seizure "and when conducted on private property without consent, a warrant, probable cause or exigent circumstances,"such an interview is an unreasonable search and seizure in violation of the rights of the parent, and child, and possibly the owner of the private property. In white V.

The principal that government officials cannot coerce entry into people's houses without a search warrant or applicability of an established exception to the requirement of a search warrant is so well established that any reasonable officer would know it. If a police officer says "if you don't let us in your home we will break down your door"a parent who then opens the door has not given free and voluntary consent. If a social worker says,"if you don't let me in the home I will take your children away," a parent who then opens the door has not given free and voluntary consent. If a social worker says "I will call the police if you do not let me in"negate consent ".

@@dragonf1092 technically if beyond reasonable doubt a cop can search u than even if u deny them they will just get cops so it still checkmate lol declining not to let them enter means ur already fishy lol
Social work today seems like it can get really shady, but they do a lot of good too. I worry that they work along with dealers and pimps, in a kind of a network where they divide the livestock, and I'm certain it has to be more than a rumor that they used to actually breed wards of the state such as down syndrome kids, which with our advances in genetics today, would be unnecessary. It went away like grave robbing for medical schools back in Burke and Hare times. Social workers do have ways to trigger you while covering for their own behinds, especially where you're known to have a short fuse in the first place. Thanks for concentrating on CPS... I consider kids more vulnerable to this crap than others including myself, and that's the sector that cannot be compromised.
If a CPS/DCFS worker or law enforcement officer threatens a parent in any way to gain access or speak to your children and you open the door and let them in they did not gain legal lawful consent through the lawful channel of consent,it is a illegal unconstitutional search and seizure.
Officer came to my door to do a welfare check I allowed the officer to see my kid but I did not give him convent to enter so he left . A week later another offer we is behind my house at my window peeking I spoke to her through window she wanted to enter I told her no warrant she can not come In she said she was back for a welfare check . Sear gent called me said if I did I not let check check the home that he will contact cos what do I do ?
It is also against the law for a CPS/DCFS worker to keep the information of who reported to them. Its against the law to violate the 6th amendment confrontation clause of the united states constitution.
Well, there are laws that protect the identity of the reporter. However, that doesn't protect them when it goes to Court. CPS cannot simply rely on a nameless/faceless report as they must offer evidence at the first hearing. If the reporter is the only source of information, then that person must testify. However, they still get to maintain anonymity as to whether they made the initial report.
My family had CPS called 3 times on them due to my abusive father they tried to take me away from my mother since she was "complicit" even though my mom and myself was threatened with death/violence by my father if we left. luckily the case was dropped due my father leaving my mother and her filing a police report.
Wow, I had to learn all of this the hard way. And I've heard allot of lawyers giving the exact opposite advice too. But, what is true, Blindly following and cooperating with CAS or CPS interviews tends to play into the narrative that they have chosen for you. It is easier to convict an innocent parent who cooperates than to do a proper investigation.
Well, the advice is a little more nuanced than that. It's the difference between hiring an attorney and dropping $5K on a retainer while the caseworker stands at your front door versus gathering information and speaking with an attorney a few days later while having time to gather funds.
@Matthew Harris Law, PLLC ok..but hypothetically..if someone has say 4 kids..and only making $20 dollars an hour. It's not a matter of "hiring an attorney in a few days"...an attorney is simply not an option..period
@@Josh-th7tm Respectfully, most of my clients make less than $20/hr. (That's $41K/year without overtime) You can certainly go it alone, but your strategy in a CPS Defense case (like most family law) can change with just one text message. Fighting CPS is like fighting Cancer, you're going to need professional help and it isn't always cheap.
Oh yeah?? I WAS TOOK TO JAIL WHEN CPS HAD THE SHERIFF OFFICE OBTAIN A SEARCH WARRANT TO SEARCH MY HOME WHEN I REFUSED TO OPEN THE DOOR!! RESISTING A PUBLIC OFFICER IS WHAT I WAS CHARGED WITH FOR NOT LETTING THE SOCIAL WORKER IN. ON A SIDE NOTE MY CHILD WASNT EVEN HOME WHEN THEY CAME TO TAKE HER. I STILL WAS ARRESTED!
I am seeking legal advice. My children’s school has falsely accused me of multiple things and has called CPS multiple times. CPS has admitted and acknowledge that all of the accusations are false. CPS has told me that if there is one more call regardless of the fact that there is no proof That they will be removing my children. My worker called me today because she found out my 15-year-old son to purchase himself a pet snake. She went on a rant yelling at me telling me that I did not have her permission and that she was closing the case out and letting the school know that they could call again, and her supervisor asked what should be done she would push for them to be removed. The snake worker was telling me that I needed to seek legal action against the school for the false accusations harassment in stocking. They themselves told the school multiple times that all of the accusations were not true, but the school continued to call. Due to the fact that I allowed my son to get a pet snake without the workers permission she has decided to remove my children during the next call and also give the school a heads up that it is time to start calling again. I don’t know what my children are my world and my reason for being I cannot afford a lawyer, but I definitely cannot afford to lose my children.
What if someone has been recently threatened to have cps called on them. Due to a personal disagreement… in text message they told me.. and I quote! “The mother of my child is a cps social worker and I will tell her to come take your kids away” mind you! Said person that made the threats are a drug dealer a felon that carries a fire arm as a felon. This is in Kentucky fyi
I'm not sure about Kentucky law, but that could be harassment. You should report that to the police if you feel harassed. The police might just talk to the person instead of pursuing charges though. Regardless, it will serve two purposes: 1) it will document the threat and 2) it will give you a case number to give CPS if the person follows through on the threat.
Wouldn't that be a terroristic threat. And if accusations are false defamation of character as well. And a crime under title 18 U.S.C. section 241 conspiracy against rights and title 18 U.S.C. section 242 deprivation of rights under color of law (kidnapping or an attempt to kidnap).
@@dragonf1092 You're talking like a nutcase. Nothing you said there is true. Its perfectly legal to threaten to call CPS if someone is doing something that warrants it and the person refuses to stop. Its called giving them an opportunity to stop doing abusive things and correct their behavior

They absolutely can! They can also ask for you to be present and can refuse to answer questions without you there. Now, that doesn't mean that CPS must stop the interview or that information obtained thereafter isn't admissible because it isn't the same as a custodial interrogation.
@@JS-wp4gs yes children can sue CPS when they reach the age of majority for their abduction, violating their 4th and 14th amendment rights. You need to look into the legal law buddy.
1)ask through door for a warrant. 2)ask for their names and badge numbers. 3)call the FBI field office and give them their names and badge numbers and file criminal charges with the FBI under title 18 U.S.C. section 241 conspiracy against rights, title 18 U.S.C. section 242 deprivation of rights under color of law, and attempted kidnapping. 4)tell them they are illegally trespassing and to immediately leave. 5) ignore them.
In NYC can child welfare force the parents to move out the apartment? Parent is head of household children are 14 years and 16 years old and refuse to attend a school.
I don't know about NY law, but in Texas I don't think the agency has the power to do that. If anything, they would have to take you to Court to request an order to move out and they'd bear the burden of proving their case with evidence.

@@amandadcross6232 Honestly, if the Caseworker indicates that she is going to close the case and that you're going to get a letter, then you might not need an attorney. I'm presuming you're in Texas, but IF she is getting ready to close the case, then the letter you'll get will indicate the outcome of the investigation. If the allegations of abuse/neglect are Ruled Out, then you'll have the opportunity to get it expunged (removal of role information). If it is anything other than completely Ruled Out, then you should immediately get your attorney to discuss appeals. *disclaimer* obviously I'm working off very little information here, so please don't take this as legal advice and speak with a local attorney if you're looking for legal advice.
If you're incapable of keeping your mouth shut until you have an lawyer present, you shouldn't be raising kids. I say two things: "I want a lawyer present before I answer any questions." and "I'll let you know when I can afford a lawyer."
I would call 5 local family law attorneys and ask them for referrals to an attorney who handles CPS Defense. You'll probably see a pattern as they'll probably give you the same names. If that doesn't yield any results, then contact your State Bar as they should have a referral list.

A mother was playing games and drawing with her 16 month old son, she realized they needed more crayons for more fun. The dollar store was five minutes walk, so she left the toddler alone in a locked apartment and went to get more crayons.

The inquiry was calm. A week later CPS is coming, what should this young mom do??????????????
This young Mom should immediately speak to a local CPS Defense attorney who has experience in these types of cases.

@@jackwang660 Well, the goal is to gather as much information as possible from them without actually answering any questions until you have an attorney. Did you watch the section about nailing down the specific allegations?
@@lauramclaren3 I strongly, but respectfully, disagree with you. Asking questions to gather information so you can consult an attorney doesn't amount to refusal to cooperate. They definitely do have to have specific allegations and can't just come in to assess a family for general ability to function as a family. CPS draws a distinction between "risk" and "safety." In fact, we just finished a trial where the CPS Supervisor testified that, "It is the Department's position that there's a risk to a child in every single home for every single parent." You have to look at these cases like criminal investigations because allegations of abuse/neglect can be prosecuted criminally. Also, any time the Government wants to interfere in your affairs, you have to keep them at arms-length.
If they don't have a legal lawful search warrant no you don't have to talk to or answer them, you have the 4th amendment right against illegal search and seizures and 5th amendment constitutional right to remain silent and not incriminate yourself so no you don't have to talk to them just ask for a legal lawful search warrant and state you are exercising your 4th,5th,14th amendment constitutionally protected rights (liberties). Ask for their names and badge numbers that's all and report them for their crimes of attempted kidnapping/kidnapping to the FBI and press federal charges against them under title 18 U.S.C. sections 241 conspiracy against rights and 242 deprivation of rights under color of law.
CPS workers that violate your 4th amendment rights, which seems to be most common, need to be sued in their individual status under 1983 in federal court. You can't get CPS, since they're entitled to immunity as a state agency, but you can definitely drag the individual worker into federal court and have them whine to their employer for indemnification. "We don't need a warrant. We're CPS." LOL. Get out your checkbook Karen.
What if someone that lives in the home... or a babysitter already let them in the home??? I live with my exhusband who is not the father of my daughter...but her father is not in the picture at all.... my ex-husband cares for my daughter as if she was his own and watches her on the weekends while I work double shifts at my restaurant... they came today and he let them right in and told me I need to call the investigator just to answer some questions and clear this up.... wth???? On paper my ex husband looks phenomenal... on paper... I do not.... he thinks if I don't call the investigator that ill look guilty of something and they'll have enough evidence to take my daughter... the person calling cps on me is relentless and its malicious in nature... shes called 4 times on me in the last year... i really cannot afford an atty unless they were able to make a serious payment plan with me.... i am not easily intimidated and i have never cooperated with their investigation. Now they sent me a letter saying that they will get a court order order to force me to cooperate.
I'm not sure what state you live in, but there is most likely a law that requires some level of assistance in the investigation. It could just be as simple as letting them interview your child. Don't ignore them. At LEAST find out what the allegations are.
@@MatthewHarrisLawPLLC i know what the allegations are... that my daughter is neglected, and being drugged with melatonin, and that I am a drug user. I am in Texas. They have seen my child on 4 separate occasions and it is obvious she is not neglected, abused, mistreated, or anything of the sort. I have simply told them that I will not cooperate or aid them in their investigation without a court order. It is my constitutional right. And without allowing them to gather evidence that is skewed at best... what grounds would there be to get a court order? I do know it is not a mandatory reporter that has called. I don't have to allow them into my life so they can use any excuse to take my child.
@@awnikins64 Oh good, Texas law offers protection. If CPS has already interviewed the child, then they have no grounds for an Order in Aid of Investigation under 261.303 or 261.3031. They also can't get a Drug Test under an Order in Aid of Investigation. They LOVE getting an OTA to try and use it as a search warrant, even though the law doesn't allow for that.

Hypothetically, yes. But whether the child comes home doesn't depend on the innocence of the child. It depends on the parent and just how unethical CPS's attorney is.
If you're in Texas, then you CAN record them without their consent so long as you're part of the conversation. You can't plant your phone in a separate room to record them when you're not present.

Shit teachers are this is the second time this year they've tried to pin false aligations on me. Was told they see a bruze they call cps. My kid has low iorn and vitamin D and bruises easy. Getting paperwork from the doctor to prove this for the 2nd time.
I applied the Texas one-party consent law, which saved our family during an overly zealous and prejudicial CPS inquiry. Having exercised my right to terminate the interview and request my lawyer's presence, the investigator responded, "Fine, I don't believe anything you say because most people from the military are abusers." I was stunned. Despite reporting her to the supervisor, she continued to call me a liar. I played the recording, and the case was closed. Thank you, @MatthewHarrisLawPLLC
Social workers and law enforcement have no legal lawful immunity from suit for civil rights violations in a federal court of law. 42 1983,1985 removes all immunity.
I'm concerned about the Child right from each State I'm seeing so many times that CPS have their hands tied in several Child abuse cases. Which means our Legislation need to change these guidelines before we use anymore Children I Pray this s done very soon and hoping these Caseworkers are ignore any signs of Neglect and Abuse.
Then want your children to put in foster care they are neglected by the foster parents and nothing is done against the foster parents for their neglect
never ever ever make any STATEMENT to CPS ever ,only ask questions ,and DO NOT let them in your house ,if your smart you wont even identify who you are and just tell them to come back with a warrant
Amen! Except, you should identify yourself so that way they have to document that they did in fact speak to you. Then, have your attorney call them back. 😁
@@MatthewHarrisLawPLLC i wouldnt even go that far ,ask them for a card and have your atty contact them ,you are in no way obligated to ID to anyone absent a crime and having your name added to official reports with words such as uncooperative ,belligerent or obstructive trust me will influence every encounter you have with the system from that day forward ,let alone what goes on in the fusion centers and the federal data bases ,never ID unless you are 100% legally obligated to do so and if its a public official telling you to ID make then threaten arrest of you dont ,other wise they are free to lie and just tell you that you are required to when you are not

never let cps enter home without a warrant. Ask cops and cps to bring 2 lawyers as witness of missconduct. Any lawyer will say to never talk to cops or cps, both are family destroyers
@@MatthewHarrisLawPLLC I often question whether they really want to protect kids. I’ve reported issues to Children and Family Services in Ontario and they have fallen on deaf ears. I often believed that they only targeted Indigenous families.
I agree that there are times where CPS gets it right and protects children who are actually in danger. However, even a broken clock is right twice a day. 80% of the CPS cases that I've been involved in over the past few years have been unnecessary intrusions into the parents' lives and CPS found a way to violate their constitutional rights.
@@MatthewHarrisLawPLLC i'm almost 59 years old. i remember back when i was in middle school or high school hearing a few other students tell me that cps had more power then the cops and they could take the children away for whatever reason. i knew back then that it didn't sound right. i sorta knew that there was more to the story then what i was hearing from my fellow schoolmates.
Cps did not give me a reason only neglect so i deserve to loose my kids because my child got abused in a visit whit het fathers family the got imposed by cps then they claim it was my fault
If cps or law enforcement illegally enter your home or speak to your children without a legal lawful search warrant use exclusionary rule and fruit of the poisonous tree in the court of law.
CPS does not require your permission to talk to your kids. Ever. That would defeat the entire point of investigating abusive parents. They have the guaranteed right to speak to your children as they see fit
I could really use your help we didn't even have a judge the lady that was being the judge said she is like a judge but not a judge They took my daughter over a lie i think its becausei asked a cop for his badge number and name he said " do you want me to arrest you too "!! So i could help my fiance they tried to say he was drunk driving and he was not And that the cop lied to me and said my fiance wanted me to go to a different hospital thsn we were supposed to go too And than in the hearing he wouldn't provide the audio of the dash cam or his body camera he tried to stay a raindrop mess it up, and I recorded my court hearing because of cyas Lady and the judge started lying
Oh my! You definitely need an attorney to help you through this situation. You're going to need continuing legal counsel as the facts and evidence of your case develops, which is far more than I can provide here. If the State is trying to take your child, then you should be entitled to a Court Appointed Attorney. Have you seen our video on getting a CPS Attorney? ua-cam.com/video/KsNBjrQ-cos/v-deo.html

@@NancyB35 Glad to have a new viewer! I have an entire CPS Law playlist 😁
There is an exception to that and that is where someone has called in and said that there is an immediate and serious danger. Of course it should not be an anonymous tip and you always have the right to ask about that, but the best thing to do and that situation is if they say child one two or three is in danger simply bring child one two or three to the front door and tell them not to say anything but show them to the police and or DCFS and tell them they're perfectly fine and then shut the door
if a CPS with cops show up at my house i tell them sorry im not talking to non of u & u cant enter without my lawyer & case worker said so unit then i see ur ass in court do to this be harassment & other then i will file
Don't forget, while the investigator is talking to you, they're also looking around and taking notes on the condition of the house. Dirty clothes on the floor, dirty dishes in the sink, foul smells, dirty toilet, dirty sink, dirty bathtub. EVERYTHING they can see, hear, and smell will be documented and used against you.
They sure are! That's a great point! This is why you should conduct your interview outside of your house.
No legal lawful search warrant illegal unlawful search and seizure. Exclusionary rule and fruit of the poisonous tree in the court of law.
Fruit of the poisonous tree

All evidence they obtained is inadmissible in a court of law they have no legal lawful case.
@@dragonf1092 You're assuming that the court is following the law. In many cases, judges will hand down unlawful judgements and then place gag orders on the parents.
I wish I knew all this before letting a cps worker in my house and having the interview take place!!
Definitely! Most people don't know their rights until after they've already given them up. It's kind of like not realizing the value of insurance until after you've totaled your car. One thing you could do though to help someone else is to send them videos like this to watch BEFORE they need them because parents never know when they'll get that dreaded knock at the door.
I hope your situation resolved in your favor.
Same here! My daughter had someone@school of a fight that happened between her and my son. They showed up to my house. I was in the middle of separation with my husband, depressed and overwhelmed. But the ONLY thing they can use against me is that I had dirty dishes, full laundry baskets, and unorganized clutter. I ignorantly gave them permission to come in and take pictures of my house because I knew in my heart that my children were not in any danger, or being neglected or abused! They are coming back Tuesday and we got this house super clean so that they can't use that against me! God has this family!!! My children ain't going anywhere!!! Amen

Another great rule is if CPS and DCFS shows up to the front door do not let them come in without a warrant. Answer the questions at the front door that they have to have answered and you can ask them your questions there but it's best not to let them come in the house at all if you can possibly avoid it. If they say they got a court order ask to see it and if they have alleged they get the right to search certain places that only limit them to those places
Rule number 1A always be in mind the CPS DCFS and the police are allowed to lie. So if they give you any information never assume that it's the truth
I’ve never been involved with cps. This is very good advice for those dealing with these allegations.
If you have kids or grandkids, it's only a matter of time. 😥 That's why I push to educate so many people before the time comes.
TRUTH! I'm a 50yr old Gma been raisin' gkid since 2017 (legally, court order, signed by judge, ordered child support by each parent, but zero dollars sent, never once showed up for their court ordered visitation, but want to come & go as they please, late to and/or miss events, celebrations, & bdays... 6yrs of this, and on a visit one day, dad swipes gkid, court ordered habeas returns gkid to us (30days later). NOW we're in MEDIATION w/ FINAL HEARING 2 DAYS AFTER!?!?
There's an angle here. I just don't know what it is. What's the end goal, here? What am I missing? My lawyer won't even entertain the idea of termination of parental rights and I don't see how we DON'T have 100% solid evidence for the grounds for termination of parental rights. What am I missing?
Thank you so much for this information. I'm dumb when it comes to law and just let them do w.e. I've been screwed over by complying without knowing my right and now cps is knocking and there's no way I'm letting them break our home. I just hope I can afford an attorney. Gonna have to sell my stuff 😢 but my child is worth more than all the riches. Anyways thank you for helping me keep my child safe! Much love.
"Do you know to answer their questions?" Yes, you say "I don't answer questions".
"Do you know what questions you should refuse to answer?" Yes, all of them.
"Lets discuss what questions you need to ask them". Only one, "Do you have a warrant?"
These are certainly options, but then you'd miss out on the ability to pump them for as much information as possible so you can beat them.
If they don't have a search warrant signed by a judge(most of the time they don't), I'm NOT talking to them, or opening the door to them , and I will immediately contact an Attorney
Why are they allowed to even exist.
CPS, in it's current state, needs to be torn down to the last brick and rebuilt in a way that doesn't destroy families, cause additional abuse to children, and protects parents' rights.
I wish you were in my area. It’s sickening how victims are made to feel like the bad guy. I don’t know how to help others once I help my son and I⛅️

Don't let them in. Don't open the door unless you have a locked safety screen door so they can't push in. They must have a warrant to get in.
If they push their way in over your objections without a warrant, then that's a home invasion. Act accordingly.

White V. Pierce county 797 F.2nd. 812(9th cir. 1986).
The US court of appeals for the 7th cir. Ruled that a child abuse investigations held on private property unconstitutional.
The decision of the 7th cir. Court of appeals found that this practice, ie. The "no prior consent"interview of a child will ordinarily constitute a clear violation "of the constitutional rights of parents under the 4th and 14th amendment of the U.S. constitution. According to the court (the investigative interview of a child constitutes a"search and seizure "and when conducted on private property without consent, a warrant, probable cause or exigent circumstances,"such an interview is an unreasonable search and seizure in violation of the rights of the parent, and child, and possibly the owner of the private property.
In white V. Pierce county a child investigation case that it was settled constitutional law that absent exigent circumstances,police could not enter a dwelling without a warrant even under statutory authority where probable cause existed. The principal that government officials cannot coerce entry into people's houses without a search warrant or applicability of an established exception to the requirement of a search warrant is so well established that any reasonable officer would know it.
If a police officer says "if you don't let us in your home we will break down your door"a parent who then opens the door has not given free and voluntary consent. If a social worker says,"if you don't let me in the home I will take your children away," a parent who then opens the door has not given free and voluntary consent. If a social worker says "I will call the police if you do not let me in"negate consent ". Any type of communication which conveys the idea to the parent that they have no realistic alternative, but to allow entry negates any claim that the entry was lawfully gained through the channel of consent.
H.R. V. State department of resources 612 So.2d 477(Ala.ct.App.1992) the court held that an anonymous tip standing alone never amounts to probable cause.

You must protect your child's rights. CPS has no legal right to enter your home or speak to you and your child when there is no imminent danger present. You can refuse to speak to any government official whether it is a police officer or CPS as long as there is a open criminal investigation. They will tell you that what they are involved with is a civil matter not a criminal matter. Don't you believe it. There is nothing civil about allegations of child abuse or neglect.

Social work today seems like it can get really shady, but they do a lot of good too. I worry that they work along with dealers and pimps, in a kind of a network where they divide the livestock, and I'm certain it has to be more than a rumor that they used to actually breed wards of the state such as down syndrome kids, which with our advances in genetics today, would be unnecessary. It went away like grave robbing for medical schools back in Burke and Hare times. Social workers do have ways to trigger you while covering for their own behinds, especially where you're known to have a short fuse in the first place.
Thanks for concentrating on CPS... I consider kids more vulnerable to this crap than others including myself, and that's the sector that cannot be compromised.
Great video and thank you for it!
My pleasure! It is an honor and a privilege to educate. 😁
If a CPS/DCFS worker or law enforcement officer threatens a parent in any way to gain access or speak to your children and you open the door and let them in they did not gain legal lawful consent through the lawful channel of consent,it is a illegal unconstitutional search and seizure.
Officer came to my door to do a welfare check I allowed the officer to see my kid but I did not give him convent to enter so he left . A week later another offer we is behind my house at my window peeking I spoke to her through window she wanted to enter I told her no warrant she can not come In she said she was back for a welfare check . Sear gent called me said if I did I not let check check the home that he will contact cos what do I do ?
You seem like a very sharp attorney!
Why thank you! I work hard to educate the public on our rights because society is improved if we're all informed.
It is also against the law for a CPS/DCFS worker to keep the information of who reported to them. Its against the law to violate the 6th amendment confrontation clause of the united states constitution.
Well, there are laws that protect the identity of the reporter. However, that doesn't protect them when it goes to Court. CPS cannot simply rely on a nameless/faceless report as they must offer evidence at the first hearing. If the reporter is the only source of information, then that person must testify. However, they still get to maintain anonymity as to whether they made the initial report.
My family had CPS called 3 times on them due to my abusive father they tried to take me away from my mother since she was "complicit" even though my mom and myself was threatened with death/violence by my father if we left. luckily the case was dropped due my father leaving my mother and her filing a police report.
Wow, I had to learn all of this the hard way. And I've heard allot of lawyers giving the exact opposite advice too. But, what is true, Blindly following and cooperating with CAS or CPS interviews tends to play into the narrative that they have chosen for you. It is easier to convict an innocent parent who cooperates than to do a proper investigation.
"We understand not everyone can hire an attorney at a moments notice so our advice is...hire an attorney"
Well, the advice is a little more nuanced than that. It's the difference between hiring an attorney and dropping $5K on a retainer while the caseworker stands at your front door versus gathering information and speaking with an attorney a few days later while having time to gather funds.
@Matthew Harris Law, PLLC ok..but hypothetically..if someone has say 4 kids..and only making $20 dollars an hour. It's not a matter of "hiring an attorney in a few days"...an attorney is simply not an option..period
@@Josh-th7tm Respectfully, most of my clients make less than $20/hr. (That's $41K/year without overtime) You can certainly go it alone, but your strategy in a CPS Defense case (like most family law) can change with just one text message.

Oh yeah?? I WAS TOOK TO JAIL WHEN CPS HAD THE SHERIFF OFFICE OBTAIN A SEARCH WARRANT TO SEARCH MY HOME WHEN I REFUSED TO OPEN THE DOOR!! RESISTING A PUBLIC OFFICER IS WHAT I WAS CHARGED WITH FOR NOT LETTING THE SOCIAL WORKER IN. ON A SIDE NOTE MY CHILD WASNT EVEN HOME WHEN THEY CAME TO TAKE HER. I STILL WAS ARRESTED!
I am seeking legal advice. My children’s school has falsely accused me of multiple things and has called CPS multiple times. CPS has admitted and acknowledge that all of the accusations are false. CPS has told me that if there is one more call regardless of the fact that there is no proof That they will be removing my children. My worker called me today because she found out my 15-year-old son to purchase himself a pet snake. She went on a rant yelling at me telling me that I did not have her permission and that she was closing the case out and letting the school know that they could call again, and her supervisor asked what should be done she would push for them to be removed. The snake worker was telling me that I needed to seek legal action against the school for the false accusations harassment in stocking. They themselves told the school multiple times that all of the accusations were not true, but the school continued to call. Due to the fact that I allowed my son to get a pet snake without the workers permission she has decided to remove my children during the next call and also give the school a heads up that it is time to start calling again. I don’t know what my children are my world and my reason for being I cannot afford a lawyer, but I definitely cannot afford to lose my children.
You are the best!
Thank you Hector! 🤩 Did you get some benefit from our video?
My ex wife hit my daughter, with evidence, and CPS visited my house😂.
In some states, EVERYONE is considered a mandated reporter. That's a problem sometimes.
What if someone has been recently threatened to have cps called on them. Due to a personal disagreement… in text message they told me.. and I quote! “The mother of my child is a cps social worker and I will tell her to come take your kids away” mind you! Said person that made the threats are a drug dealer a felon that carries a fire arm as a felon. This is in Kentucky fyi
I'm not sure about Kentucky law, but that could be harassment. You should report that to the police if you feel harassed. The police might just talk to the person instead of pursuing charges though. Regardless, it will serve two purposes: 1) it will document the threat and 2) it will give you a case number to give CPS if the person follows through on the threat.
Wouldn't that be a terroristic threat. And if accusations are false defamation of character as well. And a crime under title 18 U.S.C. section 241 conspiracy against rights and title 18 U.S.C. section 242 deprivation of rights under color of law (kidnapping or an attempt to kidnap).

They incarcerated him , denying him of his cancer treatment's for a year, and what was 1st stage , now that he's been released is late 3rd stage , has spread and become inoperable! 😞 God please help us
Do the CPS regulations that you describe in this video apply to all States? FYI: I live in Washington State.
Can your kids demand to have a lawyer there when being interviewed?
They absolutely can! They can also ask for you to be present and can refuse to answer questions without you there. Now, that doesn't mean that CPS must stop the interview or that information obtained thereafter isn't admissible because it isn't the same as a custodial interrogation.
Yep
They can sue them personally and officially as well for violating their 4th,14th amendment rights and their abduction (kidnapping).
@@dragonf1092 No they can't. CPS has the right to interview the kids involved in any CPS case. Its literally their job
@@JS-wp4gs yes children can sue CPS when they reach the age of majority for their abduction, violating their 4th and 14th amendment rights. You need to look into the legal law buddy.
1)ask through door for a warrant.
2)ask for their names and badge numbers.
3)call the FBI field office and give them their names and badge numbers and file criminal charges with the FBI under title 18 U.S.C. section 241 conspiracy against rights, title 18 U.S.C. section 242 deprivation of rights under color of law, and attempted kidnapping.
4)tell them they are illegally trespassing and to immediately leave.
5) ignore them.
In NYC can child welfare force the parents to move out the apartment? Parent is head of household children are 14 years and 16 years old and refuse to attend a school.
I don't know about NY law, but in Texas I don't think the agency has the power to do that. If anything, they would have to take you to Court to request an order to move out and they'd bear the burden of proving their case with evidence.
NYS is also , one party consent!!!!
Woo Hoo! One party consent is the BEST when it comes to holding the government accountable.
If you don't register the baby's birth (with a birth certificate) CPS will have no standing to intervene in anything at all.
That’s wild tho. How will they get into school? See a doctor? Get a social security card? Get a drivers license? Rent an apartment? Get a job?
@@botanicassie Basically through others in the same situation. That's why it's imperative that people wake up to the reality of the system in which they live.
To my knowledge, even if it is a two-party consent state you have a right to record public officials in the course of their duties.
I'm a Grandmother of a child who is state
foster care and
The caseworker told me There were allegations the mother was at my home when the child in question was at my home I told the case worker I would go to court and tell the judge that is a lie she told me no don't go to court well I did and I did tell the judge exactly what happened that I wasn't even home Caseworkers took the child's clothes in question for 7 days
No bath or clean clothes I told the judge that
Now the caseworker won't let me talk to the child I'm going back to court and I will tell the judge They cut off our communication together since I came before the judge The child has been treated With Harassment Threatened had the cell phone taken
There is a foster care act for children in the foster care system it's States Children should be treated with respect and dignity free of Harassment and threats We are talking about a 16-year-old teenager The child wanted a lawyer worker denied A judge will hear all about this one
I have an over eater, i send enough food for a school lunch and the school called cps without informing me to rectify the situation. I even told them that if you let child eat they will eat until they throw up. This is crazy! Who calls cps on a parent thats trying to stop a child from self hurt🤔 by over eating.
@@Kingyazarah
Just curious, does your child have an iep?
Maybe contact an attorney against the schoo if you have the funds.
That’s some weird business
Make sure you’re compliant w any doctors recommendations and appointments
I don’t answer questions without an attorney or just tell them if they don’t have a warrant or signed order by judge get out. Also record them
I have told these people to get off my property unless they show me a warrent signed by a judge , they usually try to tell me why they were there which i continually talk over them and insist they leave my property withput a court ordered warrent signed by a judge i also spout off the fact that i have the right to council that i have the right fo know my accuser that i have the right to protect my home and my family that i have the right to speak my fool mind that i do not wish them involved with my family and if they have any kind of proof of the allegations then they can get a court ordered warrent signed by a judge and want them to leave me alone get lost get off my property etc etc. Put taps on your toes and get gone , needless to say this works and i have not had trouble with these nosey little busy bodys just doing their job which i understand but without reasonable proof they aint getting a warrent and i aint getting my family caught up in their system
What if you are using marijuana but you have a beautiful marijuana card and somebody called CPS on you out of spite or payback and then they come wanting to drug test you? If I don't take the drug test they will remove my child, right?
Have you seen our video on Fighting CPS Drug Tests? Under a new Texas law, testing positive for marijuana alone isn't sufficient for removal. However, if you want to know my true thoughts on CPS Drug Testing, you'll have to watch the video because they're too long for a comment. ua-cam.com/video/n6NLh7rJWVI/v-deo.html

Great question. I wish I knew the answer.
CPS told my friend twice who the person was who called. 2 different people at 2 different times… cray cray
Whoa! That is HIGHLY illegal! Sounds like a couple of lawsuits for those reporters who had their identities revealed.
Now that I think about it, I'm not certain whether it would be a criminal or civil violation. 💡Sounds like a new video idea.! Thanks!
@@MatthewHarrisLawPLLC
I've had the identity revealed to me every single time I've asked except once when it was cps doing it anonymously, I was able to foia their documentation and the police records to verify that.
If it's a consensual interaction, I want information as well, and the moment they can't answer something, that's the end of the consensual conversation
I have an interview with cps soon. I need help
Then you definitely found the right video to watch! Did you also find our Fighting CPS Interrogations video? What about our CPS Drug Test video?
When the child is interviewed or if they are do they have to answer all three questions or the same follows
Hey everyone, you can find out who called CPS on you it is called the freedom of information act. Google can walk you through it. It is your right as a parent and an individual and a citizen of United States of America to enact the freedom of information act.
a moms babies were taken because the house is dirty even tho none of the previous cases were about a dirty house.. they are claiming they were…. what should this mom do? The house was only dirty because the kids are tornados
I have CPS worker coming to my home Tuesday I had my son committed to psychiatric hospital so he was upset and starting saying all kinds of untrue things because of his aggressive behaviors. I have 5 other kids in the home and I’m terrified because of his anger and lies put us in this situation I have nothing to hide. I just don’t like being put in this situation and the call she said was A alternative Response Case what does that even mean? How can I defend myself from the lies he told these people the worker said she will go and interview him while he’s there under medical care how is that even right.
I hope everything turned out ok
Since they are a public employee, isn't thr expectation of privacy not present fit a CPS employee? Then recording didnt be a one key or Two party state. Unless i am understanding thsy wrong. Not a lawyer. But curious also as an agent of thr government, lying out knowingly wirh or orally intentionally interfering with possible out congress by lying voifmd inmunities?
It's sad that internees have to get on UA-cam and talk to you through how not to get f***** by CPS the world we live in is so f***** up now

I pray for ALL families, ALL good parents/guardians who are the best they can be for the children, that they will not be separated, the children will NOT be taken away, we will rise above this system and the case will be closed in Jesus Name.
For the ines that aren't good taking care of the children, may justice be served! Learn from the mistakes, fix them, and never mistreat a child in any way. We live in a very ugly world and the children are everything!!!! Be good to them and God will be good to you. For He says "anyone who hurts my little ines, I will have My way with".
Amen! When you're holding a hammer, everything looks like a nail. CPS is a hammer and they have a bad habit of looking at all parents as nails.
@@MatthewHarrisLawPLLC We had our 2nd meeting with CPS yesterday. (1st was on Friday, April 21st ). CPS worker said that she believes this was a situation that just got blown out of proportion. She does not see any immediate threats. She also didn't ask for a tour of my home again (which I spent all weekend cleaning!) nor took any pictures unlike the 1st visit. She said that I might receive a letter in the mail within 30days if the case is closed. Should I lawyer up anyways? Or do you think it sounds like an open shut case?
@@amandadcross6232 Honestly, if the Caseworker indicates that she is going to close the case and that you're going to get a letter, then you might not need an attorney.
I'm presuming you're in Texas, but IF she is getting ready to close the case, then the letter you'll get will indicate the outcome of the investigation. If the allegations of abuse/neglect are Ruled Out, then you'll have the opportunity to get it expunged (removal of role information).
If it is anything other than completely Ruled Out, then you should immediately get your attorney to discuss appeals.
*disclaimer* obviously I'm working off very little information here, so please don't take this as legal advice and speak with a local attorney if you're looking for legal advice.
@@MatthewHarrisLawPLLC yes in west Texas not too far from you actually. Thank you so much for the advice! Really appreciate it!
If you're incapable of keeping your mouth shut until you have an lawyer present, you shouldn't be raising kids.
I say two things: "I want a lawyer present before I answer any questions." and "I'll let you know when I can afford a lawyer."
How do u get a lawyer to take a case I can't find one that take on cps
I would call 5 local family law attorneys and ask them for referrals to an attorney who handles CPS Defense. You'll probably see a pattern as they'll probably give you the same names.
If that doesn't yield any results, then contact your State Bar as they should have a referral list.
I’m the boyfriend with a common child of a mother whose ex coherced their older son in which the ex has a bad past with me and the mom so out of retaliation after raising his son he pushed him into this , cps and higher refused to even question me or the mom never has bothered in home or calling but shows up in court lying , they gave it to local police who closed it due to being no evidence of wrong doing etc , cps still substantiated and have been close to the ex the whole way I have both pre trial in family court and still have to appeal cps decision I don’t know what to do with how cps has blantly been caught several times now missing records about me and never investigating accurately it was rushed
Oh no! I'm sorry to hear that you're tangled up with the CPS System. Is CPS trying to terminate your rights or trying to take custody of your child?
@@MatthewHarrisLawPLLC since her oldest isn’t mine I have no rights per my attorney to make anything happen when it comes to that as for my child they said since the 6 year old said there isn’t a danger to my younger child they’ll believe it it’s weird they are confirming things with a child but refusing to speak to the mother the primary guardian we both have cooperated fully in this process and still they are trying to take him from her and still gave me a letter of sub even though the police found it to be untrue ,it’s a said vicious cycle not only that the child after coming back to the mother instantly admitted to lying to them about about me and yet no one is saying anything about that
@teamironman86 Wow. Just another shining example of the failure of our CPS system. 😡
Does this cover all states or just Texas?
Help my mom needs help please my my Lost kids my siblings she repelling it but we don't have money for a lawyer and we lost and my mom's not done nothing
I’m in Ky and need someone to just look and tell my story
There’s no way that my husband and I are proven to be unfit when we still have are 12yr old just the 17 who’s 18 now and the 16yr old didn’t want to follow mom and dad rules anymore I have called ombudsman I’ve been recording every meeting every time I ask them to show proof they don’t want the proof I just don’t know how they can take some people through so much shit and more importantly my husband and I didn’t have to do anything other than a Mental and substance assessment came back we passed and it’s been 6 months and just now getting to eat at restaurants, so basically supervise visits we went to court yesterday, and the judge it just might take a long time
I’m going to see if I can get a new Judge do you have a video on that or I’ve at least been told I can file to try and get another judge
I live in Virginia, I had an hour long interview with cps about sexual abuse allegations. I had to request an attorney after an hour of trying to evade their questions. I'm an innocent man and am terrified that I'm going to jail

Wow look up client lawyer relationship. CPS is a public service agent/public servant
I'm afraid I'm not following.
Cps is a private corporation
CPS are state officials they are bound by the warrant clause.
Why can the DCBS worker not be held accountable for lying?
A mother was playing games and drawing with her 16 month old son, she realized they needed more crayons for more fun. The dollar store was five minutes walk, so she left the toddler alone in a locked apartment and went to get more crayons. The child opened the door in her absence and walked to the hallway, the neighbor called the cops. The cops interview was going on when mom walked in just minutes after they came. The inquiry was calm. A week later CPS is coming, what should this young mom do??????????????
This young Mom should immediately speak to a local CPS Defense attorney who has experience in these types of cases.
Her local attorney will know the caseworkers, investigators, and Judges (more specifically on what they are looking for in neglect cases) and can give this young Mom the best advice on how to handle the investigation in order to keep her family together.
Not leave her toddlers alone EVER! What an irresponsible mother.
@@jelenajovanovic1286 Agreed. This is the best parenting advice for the young mother in the future. I'm hesitant to throw stones and call the young mother irresponsible. However, leaving a 16-month old alone in an apartment is not a responsible decision.
She should stop being an idiot and not leave said 16 month old alone for any reason, let alone to go to the dollar store
CPS has every right to get involved in a situation like that
Do I need to answer them in the first place?
What exactly do you mean by "answer them"?
@@MatthewHarrisLawPLLC thanks for replying, I’m wondering if they don’t have a warrant, why would I want to interview with them for n the first place?
@@jackwang660 Well, the goal is to gather as much information as possible from them without actually answering any questions until you have an attorney. Did you watch the section about nailing down the specific allegations?
@@lauramclaren3 I strongly, but respectfully, disagree with you. Asking questions to gather information so you can consult an attorney doesn't amount to refusal to cooperate. They definitely do have to have specific allegations and can't just come in to assess a family for general ability to function as a family.
CPS draws a distinction between "risk" and "safety." In fact, we just finished a trial where the CPS Supervisor testified that, "It is the Department's position that there's a risk to a child in every single home for every single parent."
You have to look at these cases like criminal investigations because allegations of abuse/neglect can be prosecuted criminally. Also, any time the Government wants to interfere in your affairs, you have to keep them at arms-length.
If they don't have a legal lawful search warrant no you don't have to talk to or answer them, you have the 4th amendment right against illegal search and seizures and 5th amendment constitutional right to remain silent and not incriminate yourself so no you don't have to talk to them just ask for a legal lawful search warrant and state you are exercising your 4th,5th,14th amendment constitutionally protected rights (liberties). Ask for their names and badge numbers that's all and report them for their crimes of attempted kidnapping/kidnapping to the FBI and press federal charges against them under title 18 U.S.C. sections 241 conspiracy against rights and 242 deprivation of rights under color of law.
CPS workers that violate your 4th amendment rights, which seems to be most common, need to be sued in their individual status under 1983 in federal court. You can't get CPS, since they're entitled to immunity as a state agency, but you can definitely drag the individual worker into federal court and have them whine to their employer for indemnification. "We don't need a warrant. We're CPS." LOL. Get out your checkbook Karen.
What if someone that lives in the home... or a babysitter already let them in the home??? I live with my exhusband who is not the father of my daughter...but her father is not in the picture at all.... my ex-husband cares for my daughter as if she was his own and watches her on the weekends while I work double shifts at my restaurant... they came today and he let them right in and told me I need to call the investigator just to answer some questions and clear this up.... wth???? On paper my ex husband looks phenomenal... on paper... I do not.... he thinks if I don't call the investigator that ill look guilty of something and they'll have enough evidence to take my daughter... the person calling cps on me is relentless and its malicious in nature... shes called 4 times on me in the last year... i really cannot afford an atty unless they were able to make a serious payment plan with me.... i am not easily intimidated and i have never cooperated with their investigation. Now they sent me a letter saying that they will get a court order order to force me to cooperate.
I'm not sure what state you live in, but there is most likely a law that requires some level of assistance in the investigation. It could just be as simple as letting them interview your child.
Don't ignore them. At LEAST find out what the allegations are.
@@MatthewHarrisLawPLLC i know what the allegations are... that my daughter is neglected, and being drugged with melatonin, and that I am a drug user. I am in Texas. They have seen my child on 4 separate occasions and it is obvious she is not neglected, abused, mistreated, or anything of the sort. I have simply told them that I will not cooperate or aid them in their investigation without a court order. It is my constitutional right. And without allowing them to gather evidence that is skewed at best... what grounds would there be to get a court order? I do know it is not a mandatory reporter that has called. I don't have to allow them into my life so they can use any excuse to take my child.
@@awnikins64 Oh good, Texas law offers protection. If CPS has already interviewed the child, then they have no grounds for an Order in Aid of Investigation under 261.303 or 261.3031. They also can't get a Drug Test under an Order in Aid of Investigation.
They LOVE getting an OTA to try and use it as a search warrant, even though the law doesn't allow for that.

So many parents aren't educated on their rights, and those are the ones that CPS takes advantage of. 😥
If a inocent child is taken will they be put back in they home
Hypothetically, yes. But whether the child comes home doesn't depend on the innocence of the child. It depends on the parent and just how unethical CPS's attorney is.
So I can record the conversation WITHOUT them knowing?? Or do they have to know?? Please answer asap!!

No warrant, no entry. And we have a right to remain silent and trespass unwanted people on our property.
You sure do! We literally just wrapped filming on a new video about CPS Miranda Rights (a new law just passed) so stay tuned!
Shit teachers are this is the second time this year they've tried to pin false aligations on me. Was told they see a bruze they call cps. My kid has low iorn and vitamin D and bruises easy. Getting paperwork from the doctor to prove this for the 2nd time.
No warrant or court order. Don't speak to them. you don't have to talk to them
Plot twist the allegation was reported by a social worker
😲😲😲 What?! That's crazy!
I applied the Texas one-party consent law, which saved our family during an overly zealous and prejudicial CPS inquiry.
Having exercised my right to terminate the interview and request my lawyer's presence, the investigator responded, "Fine, I don't believe anything you say because most people from the military are abusers." I was stunned.
Despite reporting her to the supervisor, she continued to call me a liar. I played the recording, and the case was closed.
Thank you, @MatthewHarrisLawPLLC
we have no rights....
Stay tuned because there's actually a new law on the verge of being signed that would require a Miranda-Rights style warning from CPS.
Social workers and law enforcement have no legal lawful immunity from suit for civil rights violations in a federal court of law. 42 1983,1985 removes all immunity.
Uh huh. Good luck suing either of those in regards to anything involving a CPS related case. You'll never win
I'm concerned about the Child right from each State I'm seeing so many times that CPS have their hands tied in several Child abuse cases. Which means our Legislation need to change these guidelines before we use anymore Children I Pray this s done very soon and hoping these Caseworkers are ignore any signs of Neglect and Abuse.
Then want your children to put in foster care they are neglected by the foster parents and nothing is done against the foster parents for their neglect
never ever ever make any STATEMENT to CPS ever ,only ask questions ,and DO NOT let them in your house ,if your smart you wont even identify who you are and just tell them to come back with a warrant
Amen! Except, you should identify yourself so that way they have to document that they did in fact speak to you. Then, have your attorney call them back. 😁

@@MatthewHarrisLawPLLC I often question whether they really want to protect kids. I’ve reported issues to Children and Family Services in Ontario and they have fallen on deaf ears. I often believed that they only targeted Indigenous families.
CPS does good as well. Child safety is important
I agree that there are times where CPS gets it right and protects children who are actually in danger. However, even a broken clock is right twice a day. 80% of the CPS cases that I've been involved in over the past few years have been unnecessary intrusions into the parents' lives and CPS found a way to violate their constitutional rights.
@@MatthewHarrisLawPLLC i'm almost 59 years old. i remember back when i was in middle school or high school hearing a few other students tell me that cps had more power then the cops and they could take the children away for whatever reason. i knew back then that it didn't sound right. i sorta knew that there was more to the story then what i was hearing from my fellow schoolmates.
They can’t go to the school without a parent so they still braken the law
I didn't let them in my house the father of my children did like a idiot . I stood quiet and did tell them nothing .
Simple. Skip to: 4:23. (Spoiler alert) you don't answer ANYTHING.
Cps did not give me a reason only neglect so i deserve to loose my kids because my child got abused in a visit whit het fathers family the got imposed by cps then they claim it was my fault
If cps or law enforcement illegally enter your home or speak to your children without a legal lawful search warrant use exclusionary rule and fruit of the poisonous tree in the court of law.
CPS does not require your permission to talk to your kids. Ever. That would defeat the entire point of investigating abusive parents. They have the guaranteed right to speak to your children as they see fit
I could really use your help we didn't even have a judge the lady that was being the judge said she is like a judge but not a judge
They took my daughter over a lie i think its becausei asked a cop for his badge number and name he said " do you want me to arrest you too "!!
So i could help my fiance they tried to say he was drunk driving and he was not
And that the cop lied to me and said my fiance wanted me to go to a different hospital thsn we were supposed to go too
And than in the hearing he wouldn't provide the audio of the dash cam or his body camera he tried to stay a raindrop mess it up, and I recorded my court hearing because of cyas Lady and the judge started lying
Oh my! You definitely need an attorney to help you through this situation. You're going to need continuing legal counsel as the facts and evidence of your case develops, which is far more than I can provide here.
If the State is trying to take your child, then you should be entitled to a Court Appointed Attorney. Have you seen our video on getting a CPS Attorney? ua-cam.com/video/KsNBjrQ-cos/v-deo.html
