Working to Protect Your Child from the Long-Term Consequences of Juvenile Crimes

If a child you care about has been charged with a juvenile crime, he or she may be facing long-term consequences. A criminal record, even early in life, can have serious implications for many years to come.

Some crimes, such as theft, may limit future employment opportunities. A conviction for a drug crime may prevent your child from obtaining federal loans or grants for college. Furthermore, many colleges request a full disclosure of any criminal matter, and even a minor charge for assault arising from a schoolyard fight might negatively impact a college application.

My Primary Goal: Protecting Your Child's Future

When handling any juvenile defense matters, from sexual assault to vandalism, my primary goal is always protecting your child's future. To do this, I focus on two elements. First, I work to keep any adjudication or conviction off of their record. Second, I focus on maintaining their eligibility for federal education loans and grants.

Unfortunate mistakes as a teenager should not cost your child their future. Come to my law office today to discuss how we can avoid this. Contact me through e-mail or call me at (303) 725-0017.
