JOHNSON COUNTY, KANSAS JUVENILE CRIMINAL DEFENSE

The old saying "You are who you associate with" never becomes more evident than when juveniles are mistakenly involved in the Johnson County, Kansas criminal justice system. We often see minors who have become scapegoats or are accused of a crime simply because of what their friends were doing. Some crimes that juveniles are often accused of, in Kansas, are:

• minor in possession of alcohol
• minor in consumption of alcohol
• drug crimes
• DUI
• vandalism
• theft crimes (ex. shoplifting)
• gang related crimes
• sex crimes (ex. statutory rape, rape)

While the juvenile courts are meant to rehabilitate and help minors, the long-term consequence of a criminal conviction are great. In some instances, a juvenile can be charged as an adult and face the jail/prison sentences of those much older than them. Many are under the impression that all crimes committed by minors can be cleared off their record later but, that is simply not always true. A quality defense attorney is essential. Don't face the Kansas court system alone. Call us today to find out how we can help 913-602-7288.
