Juvenile Defense Attorney

If your child has been involved with a police incident they might have made it seem as though they are on your side and they can help straighten things out. The police are not there to help out your child. They have no responsibility to act on your child’s behalf. Call us before you or your child makes statements to any law enforcement personnel.

​

Even if you don’t think your child will ever do anything to get in trouble teach them ahead of time that they should not give statements to police. Even if they aren’t of legal age they have the right to tell the police, “I won’t answer questions until I’ve talked with my lawyer.” Store our number (843) 249-2252 in their phone and make sure they know not to answer questions (no matter how innocent they seem) from the police. 

In today’s world even charges that at one time were minor might have major implications for young people trying to start their lives.
