Juvenile

A run in with the police at an early age can change the trajectory of a person’s life.  Juvenile law is not simply “adult criminal law” with younger defendants, it requires knowledge of the juvenile code, neuroscience, education law, and a wide variety of other related disciplines.  Gill and Sculimbrene has experience with all of these aspects of juvenile law.  They also have experience with the most complex cases in the juvenile system—juvenile certification.  These difficult cases occur when the State tries to move a child into the adult system, usually for very serious allegations.
