False Accusations of Abuse in Orlando
Sometimes, in order to gain leverage or an advantage in a divorce, paternity action, or custody dispute, one parent will falsely accuse the other parent of child abuse or neglect. At the Law Office of Maximilian Smith, Esq., we take a strong stand against this behavior and help falsely accused parents defend themselves and protect their parental rights.
Act quickly and get an experienced lawyer on your side if your ex has made false accusations against you. Contact an aggressive attorney at the Law Office of Maximilian Smith, Esq., in Winter Park, today.
We help parents who face false accusations of:
- Child sexual abuse
- Emotional or physical abuse
- Child molestation
- Child neglect
- Domestic violence
In so many of these cases, false accusations made to an abuse hotline or in court are meant to deliberately hurt the other parent. The allegations are often totally unsubstantiated and not proved, or they do not meet the definition of "abuse." However, judges often fail to punish parents who make false accusations, tending instead to immediately grant an injunction against the innocent parent - especially if the innocent parent is not represented by a lawyer.
Our firm's lead attorney Maximilian Smith is passionate about protecting good parents' rights to be with their kids. We know that, with a lawyer on your side, a judge will listen to your side of the story. If you have an order of protection (restraining order) against you or if you are being investigated by the Florida Department of Children's and Family Services (DCF) for child abuse or sexual molestation, we can make sure your voice is heard.
You have protection under the law: the right to have an attorney represent you and the right to spank your child, as long as it does not leave visible marks or wounds. To prevent a false accusation of abuse from hurting you in your divorce or paternity case, you need to talk with an experienced lawyer who understands the serious odds you are up against.
