Quincy Juvenile Crimes Lawyer
Types of Juvenile Crimes
A person is considered a minor and can be charged with a juvenile offense if they are below the age of 17 in Massachusetts. A juvenile crime is any criminal act that is committed by a minor. Common juvenile crimes include drug crimes, drunk driving, theft, and assault and battery.
If a minor commits a crime, they can be arrested and charged just the same as an adult. The difference in the process is that the focus is on rehabilitation. Another difference is that the time it takes for the person to be reconstructed is often shorter than it is for adults, but there are minors who continually find themselves in trouble with the law.
What Happens if You Are Arrested as A Juvenile?
Even if a minor loses the desire to act the way they did as a child, those acts can affect the rest of their life. If you have been arrested for a juvenile crime, this can cause problems that will affect the rest of your life. If your child is a minor who has been charged, as a parent you will want to do whatever is in your power to assure them a profitable future.
A minor considered to be a juvenile delinquent could be treated without respect by law enforcement through the whole process. As a juvenile, from the time you are arrested by a police officer to prosecution, you will be treated in an aggressive manner, but Flanagan & Associates is prepared to use the same aggressive technique to advocate on your behalf.
