Client was being investigated for allegations of neglect with regards to his minor children. He was intoxicated severely and had to be transported to the hospital for treatment and his children called 911. A DCFS report was made because he was the caretaker of his children at the time of the incident. An investigation was conducted and our client contacted Mr. LaScola to try and stop an “indicated report” being filed and prevent their family from being listed on the National Register. Mr. LaScola facilitated the investigation and prepared the family for the 60-day investigation. Because this was an isolated incident and the family took preventative measures to avoid any future incidents, the DCFS investigation decided to make a recommendation of the allegation being “unfounded” and the family’s case was therefore closed without incident.
