If you have been charged with child abuse it is important that you obtain experienced legal representation with expertise in handling abuse cases. NYC Defense Firm has handled many child abuse cases and has the experience and expertise to represent clients charged with these allegations.

One of the most heartbreaking situations that can arise in this area of law is when a person is wrongfully accused of hurting a child. In many cases, a child is injured as a result of playing, falling or other accidental events. When the child is then taken in for medical treatment, a doctor or nurse can mistakenly suspect that the parent or parents have injured the child, and are covering up to avoid criminal charges. Health care workers are mandated reporters of suspected abuse - along with teachers, psychologists, and social workers.
