Stamford Connecticut Juvenile Defense Attorney

Protecting the Rights of Juveniles and Young Adults in Fairfield and Norwalk CT

Stamford Juvenile & Young Adult Matters Attorney

The Law Offices of Daniel P. Weiner represents teenagers, college students and other young people who are facing criminal charges or facing expulsion from school. We know that as a parent you worry about what will happen to your child in the present matter and how it will affect his or her future.

While the juvenile justice system is designed to protect your minor child's constitutional and legal rights:

  • You cannot assume your child will be treated fairly. Without an effective defense, the prosecutor's version of events may prevail.
  • You cannot assume your child will get leniency. Your minor child could be sent away for a year or more. Your adult child could get jail or prison time. The court may not suggest diversion programs, treatment and other available alternatives.
  • You cannot assume this will all "go away" when your child turns 18 or turns 21. The criminal record can affect driving privileges, college admission, scholarships and careers.

For all these reasons, you need an experienced attorney like Daniel P. Weiner to navigate your son or daughter through the juvenile or adult criminal justice systems to achieve the most favorable outcome. Our law firm represents young people in Stamford, Greenwich, Darien, New Canaan, Westport, Bridgeport and throughout Fairfield County, Connecticut.
