Attorneys at the Doyen Law Group, LLC have the experience and knowledge to help you understand what options are available to you and your child.

What is in the best interest of the child? The juvenile court and the juvenile’s lawyer should be focused on what is in the best interest of the minor child involved. When a minor child (someone under age 17 years of age is charged), you need a lawyer who knows the juvenile court system, knows the different punishments available, and an attorney that can help you understand what is in the best interest of the minor child involved.

The proceedings and court records are closed for juvenile proceedings. This is done to help protect the minor child’s future. In addition, the court is closed to the public for juvenile court hearings. Therefore, the hearing and any records are sealed from the public. This allows the minor child the opportunity to start adult life without a damaging criminal record. Consult with a lawyers who knows the juvenile court system, and what options are available.
