Children are becoming more daring every day.  With their increasing confidence, and feeling of invincibility, they are getting in trouble with the law.  Statistics show that more minor-aged offenders are being sent to detention centers, training schools, jails, and even prisons.  In fact, a quarter of the violent crimes committed in the United States are juvenile related. Because emphasis is usually placed on the safety concerns of the public, these children are not getting the help they need.

Has your child been charged with a crime?  If so, you need legal representation that is willing to work with the needs of minors.  Contact our Tennessee Juvenile Defense Attorney today.

I will represent children being charged with:

• underage drinking
• drug possession
• paraphernalia offenses
• theft
• shoplifting
• traffic violations
• robbery
• assault
• sexual assault
• vandalism
• unlawful possession of weapons

If your child has been arrested, your first step is to find out why.  I will g ather all the details and determine what needs to be done to have your child released from custody.  Since the legal proceedings and strategies for defense in juvenile cases differ from cases involving adults, it is very important to have all the facts sorted out and organized.  An experienced Tennessee juvenile defense attorney knows that children often use poor judgment and make mistakes. This is why I will work to protect your child's rights.

Crimes children commit can stay with them for the rest of their lives.  With a criminal record, it may be difficult to apply for colleges and employment.  As a n experienced defense attorney, I will protect your child's records to assure they have a bright future and don't suffer from the mistakes they made as a child.
