Under Texas law, children ages 10-17 years old can be charged with crimes and adjudicated in a quasi-criminal proceeding governed by the Texas Family Code.
If a juvenile is arrested and accused of committing a crime, he or she is subject to penalties as lenient as informal probation or as harsh as juvenile prison, depending on the nature of the crime and the child's background and family situation.
Because of the complicated and often confusing special proceedings for young offenders, competent representation is a must to ensure the child's best interest.
Marilee H. Brown has years of experience in handling juvenile cases of every kind, including first degree felonies. Ms. Brown's goal is to look at each case as unique and to tailor her defense and negotiations with the prosecutor to acheive the absolute best interest of the child.
