Children's Safety Plan (CSP)
A practical, New Jersey–ready system: temporary/standby guardians, emergency permissions, caregiver cards, school/daycare releases, and a kid-focused playbook that ties into your estate plan.
If something happens to you tonight—car accident, medical emergency, delayed flight—who shows up for your kids? What can that person legally do in New Jersey without a court order? Who has the house keys, the pickup password at daycare, and authority to talk to doctors under HIPAA (the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act)?
Without a plan, police or EMTs must follow protocol. That often means calling DCF (NJ Department of Children and Families) to keep children safe temporarily while they figure out guardians. It’s nobody’s fault—but for a child, a “holding” placement (even for a few hours) is terrifying.
A Children’s Safety Plan (CSP) prevents that. It’s a bundle of legally sound documents, instructions, and tools so your kids are cared for by people you choose, with the authority and information they need from the first minute—not after a court date.
We design the CSP, prepare the legal instruments, coordinate with your school/daycare and pediatrician, and keep everything current through AMP (Annual Maintenance Program) or CCP (Continuing Counsel Plan). You do not have to figure this out alone—we handle it for you.
