If you are facing an investigation or false allegations from New York City’s Administration for Children’s Services (ACS) in Brooklyn, you must act fast. ACS has sweeping authority to open cases, question your children, and take legal action in Family Court.
Most Brooklyn ACS cases are handled at the Brooklyn Borough Office, located at:
1274 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11216
Phone: (718) 623-4500
This office oversees ACS investigations throughout the borough. If you’ve received a visit, call, or letter from a CPS worker from ACS, your case is likely being processed at this location. This is also where many in-person meetings, family team conferences, and case reviews occur.
ACS may also refer you to nearby support services or preventive programs operated out of various community-based sites across Brooklyn.
If ACS files a case against you, you will be required to appear at:
Kings County Family Court
330 Jay Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201
Hours: Monday to Friday, 8:30 AM – 5:00 PM
Court Information Line: (347) 401-9610
This court hears all Brooklyn ACS cases, including those involving neglect allegations, emergency removals, court-ordered supervision, or termination of parental rights. A strong legal defense is critical when your case is assigned to this court.
ACS involvement can escalate quickly. Even if the original report is false or anonymous, a CPS worker from ACS may:
These steps are unfortunately common in Brooklyn ACS cases. Once a CPS agent from ACS opens a file, their goal is often to justify intervention—not to close the case.
CPS caseworkers from ACS offices are not on your side. They may lie, misquote you, or make assumptions that are used against you in court. Many parents make the mistake of speaking freely, only to find their statements distorted in official reports. Do not assume that cooperation will make them go away—it often does the opposite.
Having legal representation prevents ACS from manipulating your words or pushing you into agreements that harm your case.

I retained Mr. Discioarro to help me fight the dysfunctional machine that is CPS. Every trick he warned me about, they tried to pull. They lied, bullied, interrogated, and attacked me. I knew I was innocent, and initially I assumed that if I cooperated with them, they would vindicate me and go away. Not so. ONLY after I hired him did CPS back down. Mr. Discioarro taught me to act on innocence, not fear. I don’t need their “help,” because I didn’t do anything. He told me not to be so deferential to them. He gave me the confidence to fight back.
After I panicked and stressed out about a surprising and ironic CPS case brought against me, Michael put my mind at ease. Michael was easy to understand and relaxed. He took care of business and knew what he was talking about. Most importantly, he took me seriously and cared about my situation with CPS. HE got the case dropped and all is WELL!
This man is fantastic. He eased my worries from the moment that I spoke to him. He has extensive knowledge and extensive experience with CPS. He knows what they can and cannot do and what they will try to do. He knows exactly how they function. It's not only his background that makes him such an effective attorney, it's his approach. From the moment I contacted him we was reassuring and confident. He assured me that I did not do anything wrong and that he was there for me. He's always available. He May seem like he's being short with you but HE IS NOT. He's your attorney and he keeps it professional and only wants to talk to you about matters relevant to the case. Hire him and trust him. I would recommend him to ANYONE.
I hired Michael due to a CPS case. He has made a traumatizing situation into something that was easy and simple. CPS was constantly harassing me and showing up at my door-and Michael was there every time. He was always available whenever I texted or called him. He is also very knowledgeable on how CPS works (CPS will lie and manipulate your words). He was worth every dollar-there’s no price limit on protecting your children-especially when CPS is involved. I highly recommend Michael as a lawyer-and to also watch his YouTube video-thats how I found him and knew he was the right lawyer to hire.
