Are you in need of a juvenile lawyer? Despite being a minor, a juvenile can be charged with some serious offenses. Although the juvenile justice system differs from the regular system, there can be situations where a minor can be tried as an adult, depending on the severity of the charges. For this reason it's crucial to find the best legal counsel from a juvenile lawyer.

Generally, only minors with a background of chronic offenses are thought of as a substantial enough risk and involve the court. In any case, it's good to address the root of the problem and handle the charges professionally instead of allowing the adolescent phase to have a significant impact on the minor in question.

We don't only help with juvenile dilenquency charges. Our juvenile lawyers also assist with:

• Child Welfare: These kinds of cases involve accusations of child abuse, neglect, or dependency.
• Child Protective Orders: The process involved to obtain a child protective order is complex and difficult to navigate without a legal team that is experienced in child welfare law.
• DCFS Protective Custody: Protective custody occurs when DCFS takes custody of a child from the parents (or parent) due to accusations of abuse, neglect, or dependency.
• DCFS Protective Supervision: Protective supervision occurs when DCFS takes an role in ensuring the safety of a child because of accusations of abuse, neglect, or dependency, but the accusations fall short of requiring removal of the child from the parents' custody.
