Understanding DCF in Florida

The Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF) is responsible for protecting children from abuse, neglect, and exploitation. When a report of potential harm is made, DCF will conduct an investigation, which can lead to serious legal consequences for parents and guardians. If you are facing a DCF case, having an experienced DCF family law lawyer in Hillsborough County is crucial to protect your rights and the well-being of your family.

Tampa Laws Regarding DCF Cases

DCF cases in Tampa and throughout Hillsborough County follow Florida state laws, including:

​

  • Mandatory Reporting: Florida law requires certain professionals to report suspected child abuse or neglect.

  • Investigations & Home Visits: DCF has the authority to investigate claims and make home visits to assess the safety of a child.

  • Shelter Hearings: If DCF determines a child is at risk, they may remove them from the home and initiate a shelter hearing.

  • Dependency Court Proceedings: If DCF believes intervention is necessary, they will initiate a dependency case to determine if parental rights should be terminated or if a reunification plan is appropriate.

​

Understanding Tampa’s DCF laws can be overwhelming. Let our attorneys guide you—call us today!
