San Francisco, CA asked in Family Law, Child Custody and Probate for California

Q: Is a guardianship of my son valid if I (biological mother) was never notified of a court hearing? Tricked by CPS!!!

Bullied by cps to sign temp guardianship to my ex mother in law over DV where I'm the victim. Permanent ruling without my knowledge and NO VISITATION. I was a damn good mother, but CPS refused to speak to me or even look at documented proof on my behalf. No drug test given and not abusive to my son whatsoever. I haven't seen my son since 8/3/18 and was denied visitation without being given a reason. What do I do to get my son back or at least visitation if i can't afford an attorney and the courts and CPS keeps denying me without reason???
