Protecting the Interests of Juveniles in the Kanawha County and Teays Valley Area

Juvenile law encompasses many different types of issues, from representing minors in custody or paternity battles to working with children accused of criminal conduct. When children are involved in custody or visitation battles, termination of parental rights proceedings, paternity disputes, or juvenile criminal cases, they need a committed and compassionate advocate. The Bayliss Law Offices are dedicated to protecting the best interests and the rights of children and minors involved in court proceedings.
