Bakersfield’s Divorce & Family Law Attorney
Termination of Parental Right cases are usually filed by a custodial parent or guardian. Parental rights are fundamental rights and are protected under the United States Constitution. Terminating parental rights requires a thorough understanding of the California Family Code as well as the complex case law on the issue. If one parent has failed to bond with the minor (support, communicate or identify with the child), or if a Guardianship has been in place for the required period, that parent risks having their parental rights terminated.Â

Mr Canaday has done a lot more compared to my last attorney. My last attorney pretty much did nothing but nickel & dime me. Mr Canaday is very informative & has always advised me to the best of his knowledge plus what is normally done in certain situations. I highly recommend Canaday Law office. Thanks Canaday & Staff for all that you do.

We are so grateful for Mr Canaday (and Andrea) for all the dedication and commitment to our families case over the last few years. Its rare in the state of California for Grandparents to retain guarding ship over the biological parents even if the biological parents are addicted to drugs or alcohol. If you are honest and upfront and dont withhold any information from your case Mr Canaday can help you win with out a doubt Mr Canaday is well worth every spent dime.

He did wonders when it came to my case. I retained him only A DAY before my court date and I honestly couldn't of asked for a better outcome. I didn't want my hopes high because we only had an hour to prep but I was amazed. Definitely saw what was best for my child. Never once was it about us, the parents, and I appreciated that because he made the judge see that as well.
