Orlando Juvenile Crime Lawyer
Common Types of Juvenile Crime in Florida
If you are the parent of a son or daughter who is facing juvenile crime charges in the Orlando area, getting competent legal representation is vital to ensure that your child's future is protected. Juveniles under the age of 18 who are accused of crimes are handled by the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice, which is a separate legal system from the criminal justice system for adults. The juvenile justice system focuses on rehabilitation as opposed to punishment. Its procedures are different than those of adult criminal procedures and having an attorney who is familiar with them is important.
Juvenile crimes include those that an adult may commit, such as:
- DUI
- Drug possession
- Sexual misconduct
- Shoplifting
Juvenile crimes can also include other theft crimes, vandalism, trespassing, traffic violations, assault and battery, and gang-related activities. They also include offenses unique to individuals below the age of 18, such as underage drinking, truancy, curfew violations, driving without a driver’s license, or using a fake ID to purchase alcohol.
