March 2019
Mat Smith Expands his Practice to include the Representation of Children and Families
On February 19, 2019 Mathew Smith completed the Committee for Public Counseling Services (CPCS) CRA Panel Training and is newly certified by the state to be assigned as counsel to represent minors and juveniles. Lawyers in CPCS’s Children and Family Law Division (CAFL) represent children and parents in cases in which the Department of Children and Families (DCF) removes children from their homes because of claims of neglect or abuse. These cases are called care and protection (C&P) cases or termination of parental rights cases. CAFL also provides lawyers to children and parents in child requiring assistance (CRA) cases. Some CRA cases involve parents asking the Juvenile Court for help with challenges at home; others involve children who are truant from school or who run away from home. Matt began this work in March of 2018.
