While the goal of the juvenile court system is to rehabilitate rather than to punish juvenile offenders, the result is not always a positive one. An arrest for a juvenile offense can be a crossroads in a young person's life. The experience can encourage a youth to stick to the straight and narrow or it can become the first step down the wrong path.

At the Law Offices of Frederick R. Remer in Hayward, California, we have been helping young people navigate the juvenile court system for more than 35 years. We understand that young people sometimes make poor choices and we work diligently to see that a youthful mistake doesn't prevent them from achieving their goals in life.

We vigorously defend our young clients against all types of juvenile law charges, including:

• Drug possession and other drug crimes
• Underage drinking, minor in possession of alcohol charges
• DUI/drunk driving and other traffic violations
• Reckless driving and other traffic violations
• Theft, burglary, larceny, shoplifting
• Employee theft
• Assault
• Weapons offenses
• Homicide, attempted homicide
• Other juvenile law offenses

Whether your child has been arrested for a minor charge, such as possession of a small amount of marijuana or for a serious offense, such as attempted homicide, we can help.

We use our knowledge of juvenile law to help clients understand the charges at hand and how we can best proceed. We strive to promote alternative sentencing when possible, such as home detainment, community service, or other rehabilitative programs. When a conviction is unavoidable, we assist clients with future expungement (record clearing) so that past mistakes do not continue to haunt them in the future and hinder their ability to pursue employment, college loans, and other opportunities.

If your minor child has become involved with California law enforcement, please do not hesitate to contact us today for effective juvenile criminal defense. The initial consultation is free of charge.
