Experienced Georgetown Juvenile Defense Attorney
No parent wants to see the day when their child is facing juvenile crime charges. Texas prosecutors do not take these matters lightly and will want to be sure that your child does not become a repeat offender. Instead of hoping that your child will get a slap on the wrist for being a minor, make sure you are pursuing an outcome that can protect their future.
When you need someone to stand by your child through their criminal defense case, you need the lawyer at Ranney Law. Our attorney has more than 15 years of experience representing clients throughout Georgetown and Williamson County in their criminal defense needs, and we know what is at stake in these cases involving juveniles. We take juvenile defense just as seriously as adult criminal cases.
Defense of juveniles is different from adults – it is even governed by a different section of the Texas statutes. With over 15 years of navigating these cases, we focus on keeping juveniles in Williamson County out of juvenile detention and jail or prison.
Fighting The Consequences Of Adjudication
When a minor commits a crime, the legal consequences are different than if they were an adult. Adult sentencing is often more punishment-oriented, and juvenile sentencing is more rehabilitation-minded. Regardless, an adjudication in juvenile criminal cases can have serious consequences down the road.
We explore all possible options for resolving juvenile matters in a way that best reflects the needs of our clients. From negotiating for reduced charges and sentencing to fighting the case in court, our lawyer does everything he can to provide you with the representation you deserve.
Why Should Parents Get A Lawyer For Their Child Or Teen?
You may well consider letting your child face the consequences of their actions, hoping they will learn their lesson and move on from their mistakes. However, the consequences of adjudication can negatively affect their future. In addition, spending time in a juvenile detention center or in adult jail or prison can be traumatic and in some instances, may only make matters worse for your child. Think it over with your family and then speak with us; we offer a free consultation to discuss your case.
