What counts as “inadequate supervision” or “neglect” during winter months in New York?
Call now: 516-660-4354
In winter, neglect findings often involve leaving children alone, failing to provide safe heat, improper clothing, exposure to dangerous conditions, or impairment due to drugs or alcohol. Suffolk County CPS looks at risk, not intent. Even a short lapse—like leaving a child alone while warming up the car—can trigger an Article 10 case. Context matters, and these cases move quickly.
Contact Steven Zalewski, Esq. for guidance.
