| Juvenile Cases |
If your child is facing criminal charges, it’s important to find an attorney in Colorado who has experience defending people in the juvenile criminal system, as it is different from the criminal system governing adult cases. In fact, the Colorado juvenile court system has its own set of standard rules, procedures, and penalties. The best way to ensure your child’s rights and best interests are protected during the criminal process is to hire an expert in juvenile crimes who has experience and practice defending minors. Your child’s future is too important to leave in the hands of anyone else.
Although criminal cases involving minors are heard in the juvenile criminal court system, a minor can still be sentenced to of a number of serious penalties, including driver’s license suspension, community service, fines, probation, and incarceration in the Colorado Department of Youth Services (YDP). In some cases, a minor can be tried as an adult, in which a conviction will result in even more severe penalties. Furthermore, having a criminal conviction on their record will be detrimental to the child’s future. Young people are just starting out in life, and the last thing they need is a conviction that will make it difficult for them to get into college or find a job.
