Juvenile Criminal Defense Attorneys in New York
When a child is being investigated for a serious crime, law enforcement will not be lenient. They may look to secure evidence in an attempt to put your child behind bars for a very long time. In some cases, children may be tried as adults in the New York criminal court system - resulting in adult penalties and sentencing. This can be very devastating when a child is thrust into a system meant for adults.
The New York juvenile crimes lawyers at the Law Offices of Brian D. Perskin have excellent defense skills that can be very useful against over-zealous law enforcement officers. We will negotiate and challenge evidence in an attempt to lower charges, seek alternative sentencing or have charges dropped altogether.
The first juvenile court was established in Chicago in 1899. Since then it has grown across the nation into a very large juvenile criminal court system.
