DCF Fair Hearing Legal Services

Protect Your Rights with an Experienced DCF Fair Hearing Attorney

What’s a DCF Fair Hearing?

Have you received a letter from the Department of Children and Families (DCF) within the past 30 days indicating a supported decision on a 51A report?

Are you facing a DCF decision you believe is unfair? A fair hearing is your opportunity to challenge the Department’s findings and protect your rights. This legal process allows you to present your case before an impartial hearing officer, potentially overturning decisions such as supported allegations of abuse or neglect, registry listings, or service reductions. With only 30 days to file an appeal, it’s crucial to act quickly and seek experienced legal representation. Don’t let an unjust DCF decision impact your future – explore your right to a fair hearing today.

Additionally, if you’ve already gone through a Fair Hearing and are unsatisfied with the outcome, we can assist you in challenging the Fair Hearing Decision in Superior Court. This process provides another avenue to overturn unfavorable DCF decisions and protect your rights.
