When a family crisis hits, speed and clarity matter. Jessica Peck triages your situation the same day when possible, sets a simple safety plan, and gets the right filings moving fast. She coordinates with courts, DHS/CPS, hospitals, and schools so everyone follows the same rules. You’ll get a step-by-step checklist—what to document, who to contact, and how to communicate safely—plus referrals for treatment, housing, or supervised exchanges as needed.
The goal is steady safety now and a stable plan for the weeks ahead.

We understand lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit.
Courts can issue a temporary order the same day a sworn complaint is filed. A permanent-order hearing is usually set within about two weeks. We draft, file, and prep you for testimony.
Recent endangerment—violence, credible threats, severe impairment, or child safety concerns—can justify ex parte restrictions. A prompt hearing follows. We file targeted motions and bring focused evidence.
Removal is a last resort. Early legal help, a workable safety plan, and documented supports can avoid or shorten out-of-home placement. If a case is filed, we appear at the 72-hour hearing and advocate for services and parenting time.
Yes. Courts want safety + progress. We connect you to detox/treatment, set UA/Soberlink, gather releases, and bring structured updates that judges and caseworkers accept.
No. We set safe communication channels—lawyer-to-lawyer, monitored apps, or third-party exchanges—and adjust the parenting plan to match the order.
Keep screenshots, call logs, photos, medical records, and school incident notes. Don’t edit or annotate originals. We organize exhibits and subpoena what you can’t access.
Yes. We send clear letters for pick-up restrictions, no-contact, and exchange rules. We also coordinate with IEP/504 teams when disability or behavior plans are part of safety.
Urgent matters start with a retainer. We prioritize the filings that protect you now, then plan cost-effective next steps (mediation, treatment updates, or a limited hearing).
