Juvenile Misdemeanors & Felonies
Kids and children getting into trouble is part of the growing up and learning process. However, sometimes kids can get into serious trouble that can affect their future. Juvenile delinquency cases are different from adult criminal proceedings.
Protecting Your Child in Court
- Bring any learning disabilities to the forefront
- Expunge your child's record when possible
- Fight waiver - the first step of protecting a juvenile is making sure their case doesn't end up in adult court
- Know and understand the local system
The law assumes that juveniles are not as capable of making responsible decisions and recognizes that rehabilitation is a more productive outcome, which will allow a child to correct his or her mistakes and mature.
