What Is Juvenile Delinquency?

Juvenile delinquency is a blanket term for offenses that minors (usually children under 18) commit. It can include traffic offenses, being an unruly child, drug offenses, operating a vehicle under the influence, violent crimes, theft, vandalism, and sex offenses. For possession of alcohol offenses, minors include anyone under the age of 21. In most cases, judges or magistrates in the juvenile court system handle juvenile delinquency offenses. However, for serious crimes that older youth commit, the state has the prerogative to charge them as an adult. If the police have taken your child into custody for committing a delinquent offense, it’s essential that you get in touch with a juvenile rights lawyer immediately. Our caring law firm will provide your child with legal advice drawn from our years of experience handling juvenile delinquency cases. Don’t wait to get help. Contact our office now.

What Can You Do for Our Family?

If you’re the parent of a juvenile charged with delinquency or a minor yourself, our juvenile rights attorney can help defend you in a court of law. We will always advocate for dismissal or reduction of the charges. However, should that fail, we will push for reducing the penalty your child will face. It’s crucial that you have an experienced lawyer in your corner since even a misdemeanor on their record could stay with your child for the rest of their life. While we cannot guarantee results, we can promise that we’ll treat you or your child with the same care we would give to our own. Learn more about how we can help.

Give Your Child a Brighter Future

While offenses your child commits as a minor can carry over into their adult record, we can usually help pursue expungement of his or her record so that no college board or employer can see the mistakes they made in their youth. Most minor offenses are eligible for expungement, provided your child meets the court’s criteria once he or she reaches full adulthood.
