The Ins & Outs of Juvenile Crimes
In Florida, juvenile courts are more interested in rehabilitation rather than punishment. That said, serious penalties can still apply, so anyone involved with a child charged with a crime should take immediate action. There is no guarantee that the judge in your child’s case will be lenient.
Common juvenile crimes include:
- Assault and battery
- Petit larceny
- Burglary
- Drug crimes
- Disorderly conduct
- DUI
- Trespassing
- Shoplifting
If your child is facing a criminal charge in Florida, it is recommended that you hire an attorney with experience handling these specific cases. The juvenile justice system operates differently from the adult justice system, and there are always unique issues in every individual case or situation.
