Johnson Law Office – Protecting Families in Colorado

When a dependency and neglect (D&N) petition is filed against your family in Colorado, it can be one of the most overwhelming and emotional legal challenges you’ll face. These cases often involve the removal of children from your home, possible placement in foster care, and the risk of losing parental rights.

At Johnson Law Office in Denver, we have extensive experience representing parents, grandparents, and other family members in D&N cases. We are committed to helping families protect their rights and preserve their relationships with children during these high-stakes proceedings.

What Is a Dependency and Neglect Case?

A D&N case is initiated when child protective services believes that a child is being abused, neglected, or is at risk of harm. If the court finds that the child is dependent and neglected, the state may temporarily or permanently remove them from their parent’s care.

This process can be traumatic and confusing—but you don’t have to go through it alone. Having an experienced Denver dependency and neglect attorney is essential to protect your rights and your family’s future.
