What Happens in Juvenile Court?

When a juvenile is accused of a crime, the matter will be handled in juvenile court. This is a court that is specifically designed to handle cases involving minors, and the rules that apply to these cases are very different from those applied to adult cases. For example, a juvenile's record is often sealed once the case is over so that the juvenile cannot be penalized for a mistake they made when they were young. Additionally, a juvenile cannot be sent to prison for a crime but may be sent to a secure facility.

In general, the goal of juvenile court is to rehabilitate the juvenile and set them on the right path. This means that the court is generally more lenient towards juveniles than it is towards adults, and a skilled juvenile crime attorney can use this to their advantage.
