If you or your child is facing criminal charges hire a juvenile defense attorney. Don’t kid yourself, the criminal adjudication of juveniles in Michigan can and often is as serious as the criminal charges that adults face. For instance, in Michigan a child convicted of juvenile crime can be sentenced to probation, incarceration, and even required to register as a sex offender.  It is a common misconception that a juvenile criminal record is a non-public or secret record.

Juvenile defendants, like their adult counterparts, are entitled to constitutional rights.  Some of the most important rights include the right to a trial by judge or jury. Juveniles are also entitled to motion practice and hearings, and the right to cross-examine their accusers.

The sooner you consult with a juvenile defense attorney the better. It is important that evidence is obtained and witnesses are questioned before evidence is lost and witnesses forget. Another important reason to have a defense attorney involved early on is so that you or your child is represented during police questioning. The police are very good at interrogation and will seek to elicit a criminal confession of the juvenile suspect.
