Need help with a juvenile law matter?

Juvenile law attorneys represent the interests of children and young adults, under the age of eighteen in court. Criminal cases involving minor children are typically handled by juvenile courts which are entirely separate from adult courts with protections for juveniles that do not apply to adults. An attorney specializing in juvenile justice is an important advocate for a child's rights.
