At Ramirez & Cooper, Inc., we are committed to pursuing the best interests of your child and attaining the best possible outcome for their case.
During this stressful time, our legal team strives to protect the rights of you and your family now and for the future.

Just because the defendant is under 18 does not mean that they are exempt from all the harsh penalties of criminal law. Depending on the nature of the offense, juvenile crimes can incorporate costly fines and even jail or prison time. With serious juvenile crimes such as rape, murder or kidnapping, there may be effort to move the case into the adult courts, which is very precarious for the child because the penalties will be more severe.
Our firm has defended many young clients for crimes such as:
- Assault
- Drug offenses
- DUI charges
- Rape
- Theft
- Vandalism
- Gang-related offenses
