Few attorneys have dedicated their practice to juvenile law. Many Criminal Defense Attorneys focus their practice on adult cases. Because of this, they often lack the experience to effectively represent children in juvenile court. Many rules and procedures in adult Court are different than Juvenile court. For instance, there is no right to a jury trial and there is no right to bail. Please hire an experienced Juvenile defense attorney. Your child's future and rights are at stake.
