Children's Rights Defenders: Fiercely Advocating for Children Harmed by Negligence
Children are our most precious resource, deserving of love, protection, and a safe environment to grow and thrive. Tragically, not every child experiences this reality. At Children’s Rights Defenders, we are a law firm solely dedicated to seeking justice for children who have suffered harm due to the negligence or wrongful actions of others in foster care or shelter care.
Our Mission
We believe that every child has the right to be safe, nurtured, and free from harm. Our mission is to be a voice for those who cannot speak for themselves, advocating fiercely for their rights and ensuring their stories are heard. We understand the devastating impact that government negligence can have on children and families, and we are committed to fighting for justice and accountability.
Our Areas of Expertise
We specialize in three critical areas of child advocacy:
- Wrongful Death: When a child’s life is tragically cut short due to the negligence or wrongful actions of another, we are here to help families seek justice. We understand the immense grief and pain that accompanies such a loss, and we are dedicated to holding responsible parties accountable for their actions. We will work tirelessly to investigate the circumstances surrounding your child’s death, gather evidence, and build a strong case to secure the compensation and justice your family deserves.
- CPS Negligence: Child Protective Services (CPS) plays a vital role in protecting children from abuse and neglect. However, when CPS fails to fulfill its duty, the consequences can be devastating. We represent families who have suffered harm due to CPS negligence and violation of your civil rights, whether it be through failure to properly investigate, failure to remove a child from a dangerous environment, or failure to provide adequate support services. We will fight to hold CPS accountable for its actions and ensure that no other child suffers as a result of their negligence.
- Shelter Care Abuse: Children placed in shelter care or group homes are particularly vulnerable to abuse and neglect. We represent children who have suffered physical, emotional, or sexual abuse while in the care of these facilities. We will hold the responsible parties accountable and fight for compensation for the harm your child has endured.
