Parents have the right to discipline their children. So, where do you draw the line between what a parent is allowed to do and child abuse? The state's laws concerning child abuse are broad and leave a lot of room for interpretation. Child abuse charges often stem from one person's perception of events, but that does not mean that child abuse actually occurred. We can help you come up with a defense that explains your actions and protects your rights.
People often have their own motivations when they file child abuse charges. Don't let the vagueness of the law keep you from speaking the truth. If child abuse allegations are being used as a tool to influence a child custody determination, we will make sure your rights are protected and you get a chance to tell your side of the story. We protect the accused in a variety of child abuse cases:
- Physical child abuse
- Verbal abuse
- Sex crimes and molestation
If you face child abuse charges in Florida, chances are you face an injunction or restraining order as well. If so, you want to speak to an experienced attorney before you take any actions that might violate your injunction or restraining order.
