Compassionate & Understanding Attorneys Providing Highly Skilled Representation

Maryland Juvenile Criminal Defense Lawyer

Protecting Children from Criminal Allegations

We all know that children make mistakes. Unfortunately, when it comes to criminal charges, what may be a learning experience is now a background that can prevent them from educational and employment opportunities. It is a misconception that juvenile records do not have an impact once the accused is over the age of 21. Protect your child with aggressive criminal defense from Maryland’s premier juvenile crimes attorney at the Law Offices of James E. Crawford, Jr. & Associates.

Our law firm offers skilled representation of minors accused of a crime. Speak with a professional on our team by calling (443) 709-9999.

Our Firm Offers Your Child’s Best Defense

Juvenile crimes are governed by a different set of rules. They are not yet adults, so they do not have the same rights granted to them in a court of law.

Juvenile cases are different because:

  • They are not required to have a trial by a jury of their peers
  • They do not have the right to a fair and reasonable bail
  • They do not have a right to a speedy trial
  • Juvenile sentencing for criminal offenses differs from adults

If your child has been charged with a crime, you need a dedicated legal advocate that understands the criminal system and how to provide reliable defense. Your child’s future should never be ruined by a simple mistake. Our law firm is here to make sure that it doesn’t happen.
