Johnson-Norris is well-known for her defense of criminal, juvenile, and CPS cases, earning her a reputation as the “go to” parents’ lawyer in Orange County.

“If you’ve been contacted by Child Protective Services (CPS), you need a strong defense,” said CPS Law Group Senior Attorney Lauren Johnson-Norris. “Our dedicated team of legal experts specialize in CPS cases, ensuring the rights of families are protected. When it comes to a CPS investigation, having the most experienced lawyers by your side is critical.

In some cases, CPS Law Group can negotiate with Child Protective Services (CPS) and their attorneys to reach a favorable resolution. They can advocate for alternative solutions such as counseling, rehabilitation programs, or supervised visitation instead of complete removal of the child from the home. This can help minimize the disruption and trauma experienced by the child and the parent.
