The Florida Juvenile Court System

Florida’s juvenile court system is designed for defendants under 18, but it can still be a confusing and intimidating place. Here are some key things to know:

• Juveniles are usually not entitled to a jury trial.
• Judges decide the outcome of most cases.
• Juveniles can be charged as adults for serious offenses such as aggravated assault, armed robbery, and sexual assault.
• A conviction in juvenile court can result in penalties such as fines, community service, and even incarceration in a detention facility.

We’ll ensure you understand each step of this process and work to minimize the impact of the charges on your child’s life. Don’t wait for the court to decide your family's fate.
