Southern California Juvenile Crimes Attorney
The laws, rules, and regulations of the juvenile court system in Orange County vary greatly from those of regular adult criminal court. If your child has been charged with a crime, it’s important to hire an attorney that is familiar with the laws and protocol of the juvenile courts. Even though your child is not an adult, a serious criminal conviction may remain on their permanent record, and follow them into their adult life.
A completely separate and independent system from the laws that govern adults, the juvenile court systems aims to rehabilitate and counsel people between the ages of 10 and 18. The reasoning behind this comes from the idea that if you counsel a delinquent child and focus on his or her self-improvement, then he or she will be less likely to commit another crime in the future.
Juveniles are capable of committing the same types of crimes as adults. Depending on the circumstances surrounding the case and the child’s prior criminal history, he or she can actually be tried in adult criminal court. Orange County juvenile crimes attorney Mark S. Devore has defended minors in both the adult and juvenile court systems.
