Most parents agree the worst thing that could happen to a parent is to lose a child. While Ontario's children's aid societies were originally developed with the best interest of the children in mind, some policies, including methods of funding, tend to overly-promote child abuse investigations.
We have our little girl, and the judge awarded us costs. There were many areas that without experience and attention to detail, we would have failed.

Ontario Children's Aid Society Defence Law Firm
Ontario's children's aid societies are largely funded based on the number of files opened. This means that the more investigations started, the more money the organizations receive. While it is important that we look into serious child abuse allegations, many families are falling victim to false complaints of child neglect and abuse from overzealous schools, doctors, vengeful former friends and other meddling parties.
At Gene C. Colman Family Law Centre, we advocate on behalf of parents being wrongly investigated or unnecessarily harassed by the children's aid society. With more than 30 years of experience in family law, Gene C. Colman has a high success rate in having these damaging, unfounded cases withdrawn often without any court intervention.
It is important to speak with a lawyer as soon as possible if you have been approached by the children's aid society.
We will listen to the circumstances of your situation and determine whether an investigation was the appropriate course of action. We will also work as a team with therapists, doctors and other professionals to prove your case.
Contact a leading Toronto child welfare defence lawyer if you are being targeted by the children's aid society.
