Los Angeles Juvenile Crime Attorney

Has your child recently been arrested?

If your child has been arrested, it is important to take the matter seriously.  Juvenile charges do not automatically get sealed at age 18 as many believe.  A charge can stay there to haunt the child in later years making it more difficult to successfully apply for college, win a scholarship, get a good job or apply for loans.  With strong and effective legal defense, you greatly increase your child's chances of obtaining a dismissal.  You are urged to contact a Los Angeles criminal defense attorney.

Juvenile Crime Lawyer in Los Angeles, CA

Your child receives superior criminal defense when you contact Takakjian & Sitkoff.  We are a seasoned juvenile criminal defense firm with 75 years of combined legal experience between the three of us.  We are former deputy district attorneys who know how to talk and negotiate with prosecutors on behalf of our young client.

When we take the case we meet with your child and learn the circumstances of the arrest whether it is for theft crimes, traffic offenses, DUI, drug crimes or violent crimes.  When possible we contact the prosecutor and seek to have the case dismissed or charges reduced.  At a minimum we seek to avoid referral of the case to the adult court system. We tenaciously defend your child's rights.  If there was an illegal search or seizure, we move to dismiss the evidence.  At trial we challenge questionable evidence and cross-examine state witnesses to expose inconsistencies and lies. Our purpose is to create sufficient doubt of the state's case to justify a finding of not guilty.
