Juvenile Crime Penalties

The penalty for a juvenile crime can include probation, community service, and/or rehabilitative treatment. For more serious crimes the judge may send your child to a Juvenile Correction Center or a privately-operated residential facility to serve a sentence.

If your child is in custody for a serious crime, whether it’s underage possession of alcohol, a DUI, assault, theft, shoplifting or a drug-related crime, it is critical to work with an attorney who can properly counsel you and help you prepare for the process of defending the case.

If minors who are 17 or younger are convicted of a juvenile felony offense, this conviction will follow them for the rest of their lives. A misdemeanor conviction could be sealed in a matter of several years, but it can still affect job and college opportunities, and stay on a DMV record until they reach 29 years old. We take these charges seriously, and we are ready to come alongside you to defend your son or daughter’s future. Call JRLaw, PLC today to get answers and to learn how we can help you swiftly take care of these juvenile charges.

Start your child on the best possible path toward adulthood; ideally with a clean record. It’s what you want. So do we.
