Philadelphia Juvenile Crime Defense Attorney
In most cases, juvenile crimes are processed in a different court system from that which is used for adult crimes. Furthermore, families of teenagers accused of criminal offenses are usually involved in the defense of their children.
Minor Charged as Adult ◦ Juvenile Offenses
If you are a minor who has been charged as an adult, if a young person in your family has been charged with any criminal offense (a major traffic violation, a sex crime, assault or theft, for example) or if your teenager faces a charge of a juvenile crime such as underage drinking, contact a lawyer with ample experience in handling criminal defense matters for both adults and juveniles.
Experienced Advocate
Attorney George M. Sere has more than 30 years' experience in presenting compelling cases in defense of juvenile and adult suspects. Keeping the accused young person out of detention, in school and at home with his or her family is the first and top priority in any juvenile criminal defense case.
Looking for a Brighter Future
Beyond the immediate legal questions, however, it is important to look at the full picture and find ways to keep the young person out of further trouble. Substance abuse treatment and other types of rehabilitation programs are as important to address as is a courtroom appearance.
