The Juvenile Court Has a Very Different Purpose Than a Criminal Court

It is important to remember that the juvenile court is designed to help juveniles recover from whatever has caused them to commit crimes. It is meant to help – not punish.

Our First Objective is to Prevent Conviction

When you first begin working with an attorney, our first objective will be finding a way to prevent them from conviction. If there is strong evidence and we are not able to prove that your child did not commit the crime, then we will look for the best possible options and will look for alternatives to detention.

Alternatives to Detention

There are a number of options within the California juvenile legal system that can help keep your child out of juvenile detention. For example, we may argue for house arrest in which your child is required to stay in your home except for certain exceptions, such as attending school. If the child is not in a safe environment, we may be able to argue that the child should be placed with someone else, such as a grandparent or other loved one.
