McKinney Juvenile Truancy Attorneys
Plano and Carrollton Wrongful Truancy Lawyers
As the parent of a child accused of juvenile truancy, you have the right to receive legal advice and representation in juvenile court proceedings to resolve truancy warrants.
- Do you believe your child is being accused of wrongful truancy?
- Have you received a truancy warrant from the juvenile court?
- Do you have special needs children who are being treated differently than other children with regard to truancy notices?
- Do you have other questions about juvenile truancy?
Juvenile truancy issues are complicated and can have negative consequences for both parents and children. At the McKinney law firm of Brown & Long, we regularly represent parents in juvenile truancy hearings, which occur in the juvenile court.
Juvenile truancy hearings are similar to criminal proceedings, in that our goal is to minimize the negative consequences for the parent and the child. As experienced criminal defense lawyers, we have the skills and background to provide able representation in juvenile truancy cases.
Call our McKinney office at 972-562-3689 to schedule a free and private consultation to discuss a truancy warrant.
Parents can be punished by juvenile court judges for their children's truancy. Punishment can involve steep fines, required parenting classes and, in serious cases, jail sentences. As with criminal court proceedings, parents have the right to defend themselves and their children against truancy accusations.
Juvenile court hearings to resolve truancy accusations are more formal than administrative hearings in front of the attendance supervisor. You can protect your own record and your child's by consulting an experienced juvenile truancy lawyer. At Brown & Long, our goal is to provide protective advocacy for you and your child in truancy cases.
