Our Passionate Texas Juvenile Attorneys Will Protect Your Child’s Future
|
In Texas, individuals from ages 10 to 17, are treated as juveniles. In recent years, prosecutors have become more and more willing to charge juveniles as adults, especially for serious crimes like murder, robbery, sexual assault and arson. Juvenile charges can also include less serious crimes such as simple assault, drug possession, drunk in public and shoplifting. Some statutory offenses such as truancy, ignoring curfew, and running away, are juvenile crimes only because of the child’s age.
Punishments for juvenile crimes in Texas will depend on the crime and prior record of the juvenile, but penalties can include probation, incarceration, counseling, treatment, community service, and fines. Beyond the punishments that the court metes out, though, are the unofficial effects such as the stigma of having a juvenile criminal record and the negative influence the record could have on employment and educational opportunities, both now and as an adult. Our Texas juvenile defense lawyers understand that having a juvenile record can affect the individual as an adult if he or she is ever charged with another crime. Our criminal defense lawyers use this understanding in defending every juvenile case.
