Juvenile Cases

Lawrenceville Attorney: Juvenile Crimes

The juvenile court system is significantly different from the adult system. If your juvenile child has been accused of a crime, you should enlist a criminal defense lawyer who understands the unique rules that pertain to these cases. At the law office of Michael M. Sheffield, we understand those rules. We can defend your child.

Our law firm is available to serve parents and children in Lawrenceville, Georgia, and the North Atlanta area in juvenile crime cases.

We bring more than 30 years of focused criminal law experience to every case we handle. Our lead attorney Michael M. Sheffield previously served as a criminal prosecutor. He understands how the opposition works. He understands how to work with them or against them to best protect your child's rights.

Each case starts with us explaining the key differences presented by the juvenile court system. We will take the time to inform you about the potential consequences of the juvenile charge your child faces. We want you to understand every consequence of the process and every option you have available.

We can handle any juvenile crime case, including charges of shoplifting, vandalism, auto theft, armed robbery, rape, assault drug possession, burglary or any other charge.

In serious juvenile crime cases, the matter can be transferred out of the juvenile court system and into superior court, where the child will be prosecuted as an adult. In these cases, the penalties are much more serious. We are a law firm with the strength to stand by your side in these situations.
