When this happens, HHS will send a letter to the individual to let them know that they have a right to dispute the allegations and try to keep their name off the CACI. You can dispute the allegations in a hearing called a Grievance Hearing. This hearing is conducted outside of the courtroom, in the HHS offices. You only are given thirty days to demand a “grievance hearing”. You do not want your name added to the Child Abuse Central Index. This can lead to adverse consequences to you in the future.

However, in San Diego it is possible to get your name removed from the Child Abuse Index if you are wise enough to retain Wallin and Klarich when you first receive notice. Our experienced attorneys in San Diego have been able to convince HHS to take their clients’ names off the list. In some cases this has occurred without the need for a full blown grievance hearing. In order to accomplish this, our attorneys work with their clients to come up with a winning strategy. It takes time and effort, but it is possible. If you care about not being deemed to have been a “child abuser” and added to the Child Abuse Index, you need to act quickly when you receive your notice. If you wait more than thirty days it can mean you cannot challenge this finding in the future.

Our San Diego child abuse index attorneys will work hard to provide you with the best possible legal defense. The attorneys at Wallin & Klarich can be reached by phone at 1-877-230-1529 or through our website at www.wklaw.com. We will be there when you call.
