Juvenile CrimesSkilled Juvenile Law Attorney in Peoria, IllinoisJuvenile law is a unique area of criminal law. Committing a crime at a young age can be a significant juncture in a child's life: It can be little more than a phase that the child is passing through, or it could be the first step down a path to escalating criminal activity. Intervention is never more important than with juvenile offenders. I am juvenile law attorney Arthur J. Inman and I offer more than 35 years of criminal law experience. I know the importance of aggressive defense to an effective resolution in juvenile crime cases in Illinois. If your child has been arrested or is facing charges for juvenile offenses, please contact my Peoria law firm. While youthful offenders commit many of the same crimes as adult offenders, juvenile cases can be addressed by either the juvenile courts or the criminal courts, depending on age or severity of the crime. I provide tough, tactical defense representation in juvenile law cases involving:
In the juvenile court system, most cases are assigned to a specific judge who hears the case and renders a decision. However, a jury trial can be demanded. Expungements-Sealing your criminal recordLaws mandate that juvenile court records are sealed to the public. However, your child may still benefit from an expungement. Expungement of your criminal record essentially cleans your criminal record from the public eye. When your child's future depends on college scholarships, housing applications, loan applications and employment, a red mark on his or her record may limit their choices as an adult. With my defense experience and case preparation skills, I can help your child avoid the negative effects of a juvenile offense. If you or your minor child has become involved in the juvenile justice system, it is essential to have a knowledgeable juvenile law attorney advocating for your needs.
