Illinois Juvenile Court

Criminal defendants under the age of 18 are usually processed through juvenile court. In juvenile court, penalties are lighter and judges can make more informal decisions about the defendant’s sentence. It is rare for a juvenile case to go to trial as the situation can often be resolved before that step. Additionally, juvenile crimes do not have the same impact on criminal records, and may not show up on background checks.

Common juvenile offenses include:

Bear in mind that not all minors are taken to juvenile court. If the crime is serious enough, even a minor can be charged as an adult and face the standard penalties. If there is any indication that your child might be charged as an adult, you need to contact an attorney as soon as possible.
