WHEN CAN A JUVENILE CRIME BE CHARGED AS AN ADULT IN ARIZONA?
At Shah Law Firm, we understand that receiving a call about your child being arrested is every parent’s nightmare—especially when there’s a possibility that your child could be tried as an adult. In Arizona, this concern becomes a reality in certain severe cases involving juveniles as young as 14.⚖️
Navigating Arizona's legal system can be daunting, particularly with the complexities surrounding ARS § 13-501, which allows minors to be charged as adults for specific felony offenses like murder, armed robbery, or aggravated assault. While the juvenile system focuses on rehabilitation, adult court is unyielding and punitive. This shift could alter your child's future forever. 🕒
Shah Law Firm is equipped with nearly 20 years of experience handling both juvenile and adult cases, aiming to safeguard your child’s future. We emphasize fighting transfer to adult court and advocating for rehabilitation whenever possible. 🛡️
