Protect Your Rights While Keeping Your Family Together With an Experienced CPS Lawyer in Houston.
When your family, your children, and your future are at stake, experience and specialization matter. Not all attorneys who handle family or child welfare cases have the same level of training or expertise.
Board Certification in Child Welfare Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization is a distinction earned by only a small percentage of attorneys in Texas. To become board certified, an attorney must demonstrate substantial experience in child welfare cases, complete rigorous continuing legal education requirements, and pass a comprehensive examination testing advanced knowledge in this complex area of law.
Attorney Damaris A. Chavez became Board Certified in Child Welfare Law in 2022, reflecting her extensive experience representing parents, relatives, and families involved in Child Protective Services (CPS) cases and other matters affecting children.
Board certification signals to clients and courts that an attorney has achieved a higher level of professional competence, specialization, and dedication in their field.
When you work with a board certified attorney, you benefit from:
• Proven expertise in complex child welfare and CPS cases
• Advanced legal knowledge and training
• Extensive courtroom experience
• A commitment to maintaining the highest professional standards
For families facing difficult legal challenges, choosing the right attorney can make all the difference.
At the Law Office of Damaris A. Chavez, our commitment is simple:
Your Family. Our Priority.
If you are a domestic violence and sexual assault victim of United States citizens and green card holders, we can help you obtain a green card independently without notifying your abuser. Our immigration attorneys can help you with enough evidence for your VAWA case. We can also shield you from your abuser by requesting information and documents on your behalf.
If someone has reported you to child protective services, the agents at CPS will determine if an investigation is required. Unfortunately, those making a report to CPS don’t have to provide proof of neglect or abuse.
If CPS decides to come out to your home to investigate, the caseworker will determine if neglect or abuse has occurred. If they decide that the report was unfounded, they’ll close the case.
However, if they determine if there is evidence or risk of abuse, CPS could potentially remove your child from your home. Caseworkers have the power to do this without a court order.
Whether you’re under investigation or your child has already been removed, you have the right to seek counsel. Contact us today to speak to a legal representative.
