Atlanta Juvenile Defense Attorney

Minors often engage in risky behavior. This behavior can lead to criminal charges for even the simplest of mistakes. No matter the reason, it is the job of the adults in their lives to help educate and protect them when they make mistakes that may have consequences they couldn’t foresee, such as:

• Incarceration
• Fines
• Investigations into home life
• Community service
• Negative impacts on college applications
• Ricks to financial aid
• Possibility of having a criminal record visible to potential employers
• Possibility of being removed to adult court

He has more than 20 years of experience and is highly aware of the best steps to take in preserving your loved one’s best interests.

Minors Deserve Experienced Defense

There are a few key differences when facing juvenile criminal charges. First, the case takes place in juvenile court. Second, the juvenile court often has a different end goal when dealing with children. The ideal outcome is usually to prevent the juvenile from returning to the judicial system as an adult.

To achieve this, the court offers many alternatives to detention, including writing essays or performing community service. A proactive and knowledgeable defense attorney is key to orchestrating these alternative outcomes.

As a minor or a parent, do not negotiate on your child’s behalf with the prosecution.
