San Diego Juvenile Criminal Defense Attorney for Acts of Violence
A juvenile conviction for a serious crime can have a lasting impact, particularly if the juvenile commits a crime later as an adult. Having effective representation early in the process to help the juvenile defend his case, seek alternatives to detention and protect his or her rights is crucial.

Chula Vista Juvenile Criminal Defense Lawyer
The goal of the juvenile justice system is rehabilitation.
This means that judges have a lot of freedom to make decisions about how best to protect the children who have been accused of a crime as well as the public. As an effective negotiator and litigator, our juvenile criminal defense attorney starts by helping you and your child understand the charges and how we can create a defense. Our goal is to make sure that your child avoids detention and penalties that can affect the rest of his or her life.
Working With Gang Related Offenses
Many kids are proud of their gang affiliations, and think being arrested, charged with gang related offenses and having to register as a gang member are marks of honor. But, the reality is that the juvenile justice system treats gang related offenses harshly, and being registered as a gang member not only puts a strike against your child but potentially doubles any future sentences.
We have decades of experience working with gang member clients, and work hard to reduce charges and minimize penalties. We are straightforward with our clients about the realities of a potential conviction, and work closely with both the minors we represent and their families to try and take the next step forward.
