Understanding the Juvenile Justice System in Florida
To your child’s benefit, the juvenile justice system focuses its efforts on rehabilitation rather than punishment. As such, it can be easier for your Orlando juvenile crimes attorney to obtain a more favorable sentence or outcome.
That said, even a juvenile offense on your child’s record can have a significant impact on their future. A conviction can make it difficult for your child to get into a good school or find a job. With so much opportunity ahead of them, it would be devastating to see their future slip away. Be sure to enlist the support of our trusted juvenile criminal defense lawyer in Orlando.
