Juvenile Crime Defense Lawyer in Cincinnati

Are you a juvenile who has been charged with a crime? Has your child been accused of assault? Is it important for you to protect your child's future?

At the office of Gary A. Billig, Attorney at Law, Cincinnati-area attorney Gary Billig has over 33 years of experience handling juvenile crime and other criminal defense cases. Along with our staff, Mr. Billig works closely with clients to ensure that we pursue a resolution to the juvenile charges in a way that suits the juvenile's future and best interests.

Crimes committed by a minor most always fall under the jurisdiction of the juvenile courts system. Though these courts run differently than adult courts, the impact of a conviction on a juvenile's life may have the same type of negative effects on their life and future. In order to minimize the repercussions and/or punishments in juvenile crime matters, trust your child's case to us. We handle a wide range of juvenile crime cases, including:

• Shoplifting and theft
• Vandalism
• Assault
• Underage drinking
• Drug charges, such as marijuana possession
• Minor in possession (of tobacco or alcohol)
• Manslaughter and murder

If convicted, juveniles cannot be sent to prison.

However, juveniles may be confined to alternative types of facilities depending on a variety of factors, including the type of crime that was alleged. A juvenile detention home or a juvenile treatment center may be the minor's home from a few months to several years. Community service is also a sentence that may be imposed on juvenile offenders.

Let us help you protect your future or the future of your juvenile child. Contact us at the office of Gary A. Billig, Attorney at Law today. Our firm accepts major credit cards, and Saturday appointments are available.
