Juvenile Crime
| Former Assistant Prosecuting Attorney |
| The juvenile justice system was originally created to rehabilitate children and help steer them in the right direction. However, the state legislature has recently passed measures to treat juveniles more severely than in years past. In some cases, juveniles can be bound over and be tried as adults. As the system is treating juveniles more harshly, being charged can cause stress not only on the juvenile, but also their parents as well as the extended family. Often times prosecutors, judges and the police will not treat the juvenile as a young person who simply made a mistake, but instead as a serious offender that needs to be punished. At every stage of the juvenile case, R. Clayton Lopez will represent clients aggressively and with great compassion. Attorney Lopez will use his 10 years of experience to find creative solutions to best represent the juvenile client. If necessary, Attorney Lopez will enlist the help of counselors to determine if there is a medical / psychological reason for the behaviors that are being exhibited by the juvenile. It is important to the firm that your child does not appear to be a number in juvenile court ; instead your child is an individual that wishes to succeed in life. In Ohio, it is possible for juveniles to be charged with misdemeanor and felony offenses. With prior experience as a Juvenile Prosecuting Attorney, you can be assured that your child is in good hands with R. Clayton Lopez. |
