Child Cruelty Defence Solicitors in Coventry
At Askews Legal LLP, we offer sensitive yet rigorous legal representation to those facing accusations of child cruelty in Coventry and Warwickshire. Allegations involving harm or neglect of children are some of the most emotionally charged and legally complex cases.
Facing Allegations of Child Neglect or Abuse?
Charges of child cruelty often involve accusations of physical or emotional abuse, neglect, or exposing a child to harm. These cases may be prosecuted under the Children and Young Persons Act 1933 and are often supported by social services evidence or reports from schools, GPs, or other professionals.
We understand the distress these allegations cause. Our team works diligently to gather expert evidence, challenge social care assessments, and cross-examine witness claims. Whether in family or criminal proceedings, we provide robust, compassionate representation.
