The CPS Investigation
Child Protective Services has a responsibility to evaluate child safety and prevent abuse and neglect. However, they also support the reconciliation of families.
A social worker begins their investigation by notifying you of the report and conducting electronically recorded interviews. The social worker can speak to your child without your presence or permission. They will also review your child’s living conditions and conduct a safety assessment.
Per The Code of Virginia, a CPS investigation must be completed within 60 days of the report. If law enforcement is involved, this timeline can be extended to 90 days. A CPS investigation can lead to criminal charges.
Fighting the Outcome of Child Abuse Charges
Child Protective Services will notify you when the investigation is complete. You can request to see a copy of the CPS investigation report from your local department of social services. If you disagree with the outcome of the investigation, you must submit a written request to social services within 30 days of the notification to purge your record. A CPS attorney can assist you during the investigation and in fighting the results.

I hired Mr. Miller initially for a bond hearing . I decided to retain his services for the case itself . I was facing two felony charges as well as a failure to appear charge . While there were witnesses that were able to identify me, I walked out of Virginia Beach Courthouse with only a misdemeanor thanks to Mr. Miller's representation . I work in the healthcare profession and expressed to Mr. Miller the importance of avoiding a felony charge and he made it happen. I am forever grateful and will highly recommend him . Mr. Miller will always represent myself as well as family members if need be in the future . Again thank you Mr. Miller for using your knowledge to keep me from being a convicted felon and also saving my career.- C. Dickens

Call Dan Miller now - you need look no further for the best divorce attorney in Hampton Roads. Divorce is not an easy situation but it is even worse if you do not have good representation.
I was in the midst of a divorce and my case was with a firm that was not representing me fairly and not answering my questions. I was at a loss and dreaded going to court. Then a friend told me of Dan Miller. I wish I had found this firm in the beginning! From the first hour of turning my case over to this office I stopped worrying. I knew I had made the right choice and my case was in good hands. Dan Miller was professional, and he fought for me and I was very happy with the way he handled my case. I would highly recommend him to anyone!
