Admit Nothing Until You Talk to Us

Whenever your Pennsylvania student is facing a summary, misdemeanor or felony criminal offense,  the first factor will be your child’s age and whether they will be treated as an adult or whether the matter is “referred” to the Juvenile Court for processing, evaluation and prosecution.   Make no mistake about it.  Speaking to a District Attorney or Juvenile Probation Officer is not a cooperative process; it is adversarial in nature.   Your parental instincts may compel you to have your child admit their involvement in any criminal activity.  Resist that urge.  Speak to one of our experienced  lawyers serving Pennsylvania.

Immediate admissions of guilt, even if your child claims responsibility for their shoplifting or vandalism can jeopardize your son or daughter’s rights.  They have the right to remain silent. There may be underlying issues that need to be addressed.  With the insight of a former prosecutor now serving as a criminal defense attorney, we can give you the insight you need and speak to the prosecution on your behalf.

Attending to All Details with So Much at Stake

We look at the educational records; grades may be falling while truancy is on the rise. Undiagnosed mental health issues may be a strong factor in a child acting out and committing a crime. In addition, while it seems unlikely, a child can develop a drug or alcohol problem that may influence them to commit crimes to feed an addiction.

This is likely your most difficult time.  Let us be your child’s advocate.  Speak to our dedicated Criminal Defense Lawyers of Ciccarelli Law Offices now.
