Has your child been accused of a juvenile offense? At the law office of Thomas J. Quinn, I am here to defend their future.

Many people believe that a juvenile record will not have an impact on a person's adult life. This is a myth. While the repercussions may not be as severe as having an adult record, a juvenile criminal record can have an impact on your child's ability to atend school, get a license, get scholarships for college, join the military, and do other things that your child may want to do as they grow up. I am here to work hard to prevent that from happening.

I am able to defend minors in juvenile court against any criminal offense, including:

• Underage Drinking
• Disturbing School
• Gang Charges
• Truancy
• Incorrigibility
• Drug Crimes (drug possession, possession of drug paraphernalia, drug sales)
• Weapons Charges and Gun Charges
• Arson
• Vandalism

In these cases, there is no jury. There is only a judge. That judge has the ability to use indeterminate sentencing, which means your child could be held until the authorities feel they are safe to be released. You have the right to fight against these charges for the sake of your child.

I understand juvenile charges and all criminal matters. I am a former chief public defender and a former juvenile criminal prosecutor. I have seen both sides of the law. Throughout my many years of practice, I have become familiar with all of the players in the criminal justice system, including the judges, the police, and the other prosecutors. I know how they operate. I know how to fight against them.

I encourage you to contact me at 864-235-3834 to learn more about how a dedicated juvenile criminal defense lawyer can work to protect your child's future.
