About Juvenile Law: Juvenile law involves juveniles (persons under the age of 18) who are responsible for criminal acts. Juvenile law combines both civil law and criminal law. Under juvenile law, minors are rehabilitated and records are kept that can follow minors into their adulthood. If your child is charged with a criminal act under juvenile law, it can impact the rest of their life. Their criminal record can be affected, as well as their freedom and even sometimes their ability to drive. Minors found guilty in juvenile law may be sent to reform school, placed in foster care or be placed on probation or house arrest.

Types of Juvenile Law:

• Delinquency
• Misdemeanors
• Felony
• Dependency
• Parental Rights
• Appeals
