Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

I need help. My kids are in danger and no one will help me how do I get cps to do there job and not belive my x wife's lies? I have been divorced for 3yrs and cps has been called on her 13 times and the kids are the only ones who are suffering. I have gone to cps for help time and time again because that is how I was told and then cps tells me that I have to call the police to make sure it is reported so I did that and now my kids have been badly in a car accident and the police were there and cps was contacted and nothing is being done and it has been over 3 weeks. I do not want this to have to end up that one of my kids die because there was nothing I could do. I have talked to a lawyer and all they can tell me is to get one but I can not afford that kid of money. Is there anything else I can do to prove how bad my kids are in danger? I have photos of there injuries and the police report and other things that state how bad of a parent she and her husband are to my kids. Please help me.

Without enough money to take her to court for a custody battle, all you can do is call police and/or CPS each time your see evidence of abuse. You cannot make CPS or the police do their job the way you would want them to do it. If you are unhappy with their investigation, you can request to speak with a supervisor.
