Putting the Child's Interests First
Our number one goal in any juvenile case is pursuing what is in the best interest of the child. From the beginning, we will work with probation officers, judges and prosecutors to make sure everyone involved in the process keeps this goal in mind.
Our attorneys also understand the importance of maintaining the juvenile's privacy. A criminal record can damage a child's future. Publicity can be embarrassing for your child and your family. We will work to maintain your privacy and protect the juvenile's rights and interests throughout the process.
School Penalty Defense Strategies
Any juvenile arrest can have an impact on a child's education. Our attorneys are prepared to intervene in school suspension hearings and address any expulsion issues that may arise.
If the crime was violent, your child may be eligible for Pretrial School Violence Prevention Program. Upon successful completion of the program, the charges against your child can be dismissed.
