New Jersey and New York Juvenile Defense Lawyer
If not handled properly, a criminal charge can have a significant impact upon a person's life. This is especially true in the case of juveniles, as they can face certain career-related and educational obstacles following a criminal conviction. As part of the college admission process, applicants are frequently asked if they have ever been convicted of a crime. Job applications often contain similar questions.
