Our Juvenile Defense Approach

1. Immediate plan with family coordination and school considerations

3. Motions practice and evidentiary challenges where appropriate

Record Protection & Outcomes

We prioritize outcomes that limit long‑term consequences, including diversion, informal adjustment, and shielding or expungement where available.

The Juvenile Process (What to Expect)

2. Discovery and investigation (BWC, school records, witnesses, video)
3. Adjudication posture: motions where appropriate; trial readiness
4. Disposition planning focused on treatment, education, and family stability

Collateral Considerations for Youth

• School discipline, extracurricular eligibility, and scholarship impacts
