Finding a GOOD lawyer is sometimes tricky. Lawyers specialize in their areas, so you ABSOLUTELY NEED to find one that works with CPS and knows family law! I myself would shy away from one that knows family law but has never worked on a CPS case.

I have one lawyer that was the ad-litem for a previous foster child that I think is one of the best in town. There are others that would be a second and third choice, and one that I wouldn't recommend if my life depended on it -- all from experience in them represting our fosters. So.... if you don't have some experience with ad-litems from previous foster children (you can not use the one for your current fosters), I would recommend contacting other foster/adopt parents to get their recommendations.
