What Authority Does CPS Have in California? (Parents’ Rights Explained)

What Authority Does CPS Have in the State of California? What authority does Child Protective Services (CPS) have in California, and what rights do parents have during an investigation? CPS has the authority to investigate allegations of child abuse, neglect, or severe abuse, but that authority is not unlimited. These rules apply to CPS cases in San Bernardino County, Riverside County, Orange County, Los Angeles County, Tulare County, Kern County, and San Diego County. In this video, we explain: ✔ What CPS is legally allowed to investigate ✔ CPS’s role in child abuse and neglect allegations ✔ What CPS can do during an investigation ✔ Your right to remain silent ✔ Your right to have an attorney present ✔ Your right to refuse home entry ✔ Your right to refuse interviews ✔ When CPS may still obtain warrants ✔ Why legal guidance is critical CPS has the authority to ask questions, conduct investigations, and gather information to determine whether allegations are sustained and whether a juvenile dependency petition should be filed. However, CPS does not have the authority to ignore your constitutional rights. Parents have important rights during a CPS investigation, including the right to counsel, the right to remain silent, the right to refuse entry into the home, and the right to refuse interviews — including interviews of children. That said, in certain circumstances, CPS may seek interview warrants or removal warrants, depending on the facts and perceived safety concerns. Understanding when CPS can act and when parents can refuse requires careful legal guidance. Exercising the wrong right at the wrong time can sometimes create unintended consequences.
