Re: dept of social services

Your son needs to consult with an experienced family law attorney ASAP, as DSS will trample his rights if he does not.

If you need more information, you can visit my family law blog (www.SCFamilyLaw.com) or our website (www.StevensFirm.com). I wish you the best of luck.
