Child Custody And Visitation

Summary

In Indiana, parents have visitation rights unless specific safety concerns exist. If CPS detains a child due to medical neglect allegations, parents can request a hearing to contest these claims. Its crucial to document all interactions with CPS and seek legal representation to navigate the process effectively. If a lawyer is unresponsive, consider contacting their office directly or seeking alternative legal counsel. Parents should also follow up persistently with CPS regarding visitation arrangements and document all communications.
