If not handled properly, a conviction for a criminal charge can follow a person for the rest of his or her life. It can limit a person's career choices and it may prevent them from attending the college or university of their choice. A conviction for even a minor traffic charge can result in the loss of your child’s driver’s license, temporary permit or his or her ability to obtain a license or permit. In order to ensure that a minor violation does not change the course of your child's future, you need an experienced and aggressive juvenile defense attorney to protect you.

Alternatives to Conviction

Fortunately, the State of Ohio prefers rehabilitation to conviction for juveniles whenever possible. Unless they are tried as an adult, juveniles are deemed "responsible" for a crime and are not declared "guilty.”  A Ross and Calaway juvenile attorney in Fairborn or Dayton Ohio will be able to obtain one of a number of alternative sentencing programs available to juveniles. Those options include drug court, diversion, boot camp, or mandatory counseling, among others. These can allow juveniles to obtain the help they need, while preserving their career and educational options. Our juvenile defense attorneys in Dayton, Ohio, understand the rules for these programs and the factors that prosecutors and the juvenile court use to determine eligibility. If your child could benefit from one of these programs and qualifies, then you can count on our juvenile attorney in Springfield, Dayton or Fairborn Ohio to work hard to obtain the result you want.

An arrest for assault, theft, or drug possession is a serious matter. In most cases, however, it need not lead to lifelong consequences if your child obtains the effective legal representation of a juvenile attorney that he or she needs. Ross and Calaway will work to achieve the result that helps your child deal successfully with the behavior that led to the arrest.
