Youth Cases

Kids Make Mistakes. The System Shouldn’t Make Them Criminals.

Teenagers and young adults are still growing, learning, and figuring out life. But when they’re accused of a crime, the system doesn’t always give them the needed second chance.

Not unless someone fights for it.

I specialize in defending youth with compassion, discretion, and strategic focus on long-term protection.

I Don’t Just Defend Teens Now — I Protect Their Futures, Too.

Juvenile and young adult cases demand a different kind of defense.

One that understands what’s really at stake: not just freedom, but reputation, growth, and second chances.

I fight to:

  • Keep cases in family court, not adult court

  • Seal or dismiss records wherever possible

  • Prevent school, job, and immigration fallout

  • Push for treatment or diversion instead of punishment

When you’re young, a conviction isn’t just a sentence to serve. It’s a burden you’ll carry for the rest of your life.

Juvenile Court Isn’t Always Safe

Family Court was created to rehabilitate — not punish.

But prosecutors often seek to "remove the child from society" for serious charges.

Worse, they can request a transfer to adult criminal court, where sentences are much harsher.

I fight to:

  • Keep cases in Family Court whenever possible

  • Push for sealed records and diversion programs

  • Protect against unjust pretrial detention or unnecessary criminalization
