Re: Family law/concerning DSS

If you did not do what you are accused of doing, then you need to consult with an attorney. D.S.S. will take advantage of your lack of representation at every turn, and your case will proceed much more smoothly if you get an attorney involved sooner rather than later.

These are complex issues, and it is important that they be handled correctly. Therefore, it is important that you consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case.

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.
