Child Protection Services in Michigan Written by An Attorney

Children’s Protective Services

In addition to very serious criminal penalties, a parent who has been accused of child sexual abuse or other any other type of child abuse risks termination of his or her parental rights. In many cases, Michigan law requires the state to seek termination of parental rights at the time of filing an abuse/neglect petition. This litigation is called an abuse or neglect petition or Child Protective proceeding or a CPS case; and is litigated in the Family Division of the Circuit Court in the county where the child resides.
