Boca Raton Juvenile Crime Attorney

Criminal Defense Counsel for Juvenile Crimes

A juvenile crime is a criminal offense that is committed by a person who is below the legal age of 18.  It does not matter what type of crime is committed, if the offender is a minor, it is categorized as a juvenile offense.   Unlike other types of criminal offenses, juvenile crimes are overseen by the juvenile legal system.  Prosecutors and judges within the juvenile legal system tend to focus upon correcting and rehabilitating minors instead of punishing them.  This means that juvenile offenders are usually sentenced with penalties like probation and community service versus jail time.

However, penalties are not always lenient and can be quite severe in some cases.  The number one mistake people make when it comes to juvenile crimes is assuming that they will get off lightly.  Yet, in the state of Florida, juveniles are held accountable for their illegal actions and are subjected to strict sentencing guidelines.  In some cases, if the crime is very serious, the juvenile system may be bypassed and minors can be charged as adults.  Like adults, if they are convicted, they may have to serve time in jail.  With this being the case, minors and their parents should never assume that juvenile crimes are not serious.  Instead, they should act with precaution and work with a skilled Boca Raton criminal defense attorney who has handled prior juvenile cases.
