When a parent is found guilty of child neglect or abuse, their parental rights can be terminated or suspended. In that case, the child will be placed in the care of foster parents or a relative. Ultimately, any decision regarding child custody will come down to one question: what course of action will be best for the child? A dependency attorney can work to ensure that your rights and the rights of your child are protected.
