Montgomery County Juvenile Crime Attorneys
Juvenile crimes are those that are committed by minors from the ages of 10 to 16 in Texas. These crimes fall under the Texas juvenile justice system which differs from the adult court system. They can include any type of criminal offense, ranging from minor Class C misdemeanors to serious felonies. Unfortunately, if not handled with the help of an attorney experienced in defending juveniles, minors can face a difficult future if found guilty of crimes. These crimes can impact their ability to realize their dreams of advanced education, make it challenging to gain employment or advance their career, or take advantage of other life opportunities.
Juvenile Crimes in Texas
Regardless of their age, juveniles can commit the same crimes as adults. Because of peer pressure, immaturity, a lack of understanding of consequences as well as ignorance of the law, these minors can find themselves under arrest or charged with crimes ranging from assault to drug possession and other serious felonies.
We defend juveniles against all crimes in the Texas juvenile court system. The juvenile justice system does not involve indictments but petitions filed against the offender alleging that he/she has engaged in unlawful conduct. As the parent or guardian, you will be notified of this. The juvenile can be taken into custody for his/her behavior without the need for an arrest warrant where probable cause exists that a criminal offense has been committed.
