Juvenile Offenses

The State of New York deems individuals under the age of 16 as minors, and if they have committed a criminal act, they are seen as juvenile delinquents. In a criminal proceeding for a juvenile delinquent, the case is taken to a family court, and if a child is convicted, they will be known as a juvenile offender. It is vital that an experienced attorney be present. A criminal conviction for a minor can have negative lifelong effects and easily hurt a child’s ability to obtain financial assistance, education, and work in the future.
