Child protective agency removed my child from my house when I was in the hospital. Need advice for what to do next
Asked in Rockford, IL on May 28, 2026 Last answered on June 2, 2026Child protective agency removed my child from my house when I was rushed to the hospital where I was having seizures. My child was with the neighbors until my fiance came home to take care of him. I was not given any paperwork to why or anything that was going on. Now cps is trying to tell me that I have to follow the rules for me to get my son back. No charges or anything to that matter has been filed, so I would like to get some advice on this matter.

if you received an indication letter, you need to file an appeal. you also need to file an appearance in a juvenile matter and respond to any petition filed by the state. you do need to speak to a lawyer.
