JUVENILE LAW

Attorneys For Juvenile Court Cases

Having the right attorney for juvenile court cases could be the difference between being tried as an adult or being tried as a minor. The court procedures, the severity of penalties, and other possible outcomes differ greatly so it’s important that teens under 18 get a fair trial. At Safford Law, we can provide legal representation for teens charged with a crime. We’ll help them navigate through what can be a complex court system and get them back on track. 

How A Lawyer For A Juvenile Delinquency Case Can Help 

Minors charged with committing a crime often don’t know where to start. The same can be said for their parents, as juvenile law can be complicated. However, an experienced Juvenile lawyer can help by:

• Informing you of your rights, such as the right to have an attorney present with you for police questioning.
  
  
• Keep names confidential and out of the public eye.
  
  
• Diverting cases: This could include avoiding incarceration and ensuring that there is no juvenile court record for their client.  
  
  
• Juvenile release: This means arranging a release from pre-adjudication detention.
  
  
• Persuading a judge to give a lighter and more sympathetic disposition.
  
  
• Making sure that teens are tried as minors and not as adults.  

In all cases, teens are entitled to a juvenile lawyer. There is no need to form a defense and go to court alone when an affordable attorney for juvenile court is just a phone call away.
