At the Archer Law Firm We Have Over 20 Years of Experience in Juvenile Law Including:
- Custody – For unmarried parents, custody/visitation is set by the Juvenile Court.
- Delinquency Proceedings – A delinquent child is child who has committed a delinquent act and is in need of treatment or rehabilitation.
- Child Support – Child support for unmarried parents is set by the Juvenile Court. Child support is calculated using the Child Support Calculator. Information used to calculate child support includes the following:
- Each parent’s income
- Number of days the child spends with each parent
- Cost of the child’s health insurance
- Other children supported by a parent
- Visitation – Unless the Court finds that visitation is likely to endanger the child’s physical or emotional health, visitation will be granted.
- Dependent and Neglect – The Juvenile Court is charged with protecting children that are dependent and neglected. Often these cases involve drug use of the parents, abuse, educational and environmental neglect.
