Minor in Possession (MIP) and Other Juvenile Crimes
When your child is facing charges in juvenile court, not just any lawyer can help. In Colorado, juvenile offenses are dealt with in a separate process that is remarkably different from that of the criminal courts.
At the Denver law firm of Fife, Mangnall & Mossinghoff, our team of attorneys has substantial experience defending minor clients charged with juvenile offenses. We understand the juvenile courts, the process and the potential outcomes. Contact us today for a free consultation.
Don’t Give Up Without a Fight
Even a seemingly casual juvenile offense, such as minor in possession of alcohol (MIP) or juvenile marijuana possession, can lead to long-term consequences. If your child has three juvenile adjudications on his or her record, no matter how serious the offense, there is a risk that he or she could be placed in the Department of Youth Corrections (DYC) for an extended period.
Parents are often highly concerned about some of the underlying issues involved when a child is charged with a juvenile offense. Many may want their child to take responsibility for the juvenile offense. Taking responsibility does not mean pleading guilty or waiving Constitutional protections. We offer sound legal guidance to the entire family, so that the decisions made can be in the best interest of the child.
