Protecting The Rights Of Juveniles Accused Of Criminal Offenses in Minnesota For Over 20 Years

When a person under the age of 18 is charged with a crime in the state of Minnesota, their case will be handled differently than an adult’s case. Minnesota has made an effort to protect children that break the law by establishing a separate juvenile justice system to handle their cases, with a focus on less severe punishment and more rehabilitative sentencing.

The Buffalo Minnesota Juvenile Defense Lawyers at Carlson & Jones, P.A., have over 55 years of combined experience with the juvenile justice system and provide dedicated, confident representation to juveniles charged with criminal offenses. We believe in helping the children of our state and do everything in our power to prevent a child’s bad decision, mistake or error in judgment from derailing their entire life.

Minnesota’s Juvenile Justice System And What It Means For Minors

When a child under the age of 18 is arrested they are typically charged with “juvenile delinquency,” regardless of the specifics of their actions. Minnesota keeps most juvenile delinquency cases closed to the public eye in an effort to shield the minors who are charged from the lasting negative stigma that comes with a criminal arrest and conviction.

While the initial development of a separate juvenile justice system was for the best interests of Minnesota’s youth, in recent years it has become increasingly difficult to navigate and can be confusing and overwhelming for both the minors involved and their parents or guardians.
