Juvenile cases are very different from adult criminal cases in state and federal court. The system is meant to provide minors with rehabilitation rather than focus solely on punishment. Unfortunately, depending on the offense itself or the minor’s history of other criminal activity, the court may impose very harsh penalties or may even try a minor as an adult, where he or she would face the same penalties as an adult in a similar situation.

When a minor is arrested or accused of a criminal offense, he or she has the right to legal counsel. A minor may be falsely accused or may be facing serious charges based upon entirely circumstantial evidence or upon an unreliable witness’s testimony. A juvenile defense lawyer can work to protect the minor’s rights and can fight to help him or her avoid a conviction and serious penalties.
