Newport Beach Juvenile Law Lawyers

Each year millions of young people are arrested in the United State.  Depending on state law and the circumstances, minors may not be legally eligible for prosecution as adults for criminal acts, but rather subject to the juvenile justice system.  The main goal of the juvenile justice system is rehabilitation rather than punishment.  Juveniles may be released into their parents' custody after being arrested or may be held in jail pending further juvenile court procedures.  If your child has been charged with a juvenile offense or a crime, contact a juvenile attorney for more information about your child's legal rights.
