Ohio Juvenile Law Lawyer
Laurence Turbow has a wide juvenile law practice. He helps children facing juvenile delinquency charges and he also takes on dependency neglect, and abuse cases. Laurence Turbow offers over 30 years of experience in juvenile law, family law and criminal law, and has helped hundreds of clients throughout Cuyahoga County and Northeast Ohio.
Laurence Turbow can help clients in the areas of:
Juvenile delinquency: Delinquency cases involve allegations that would be criminal events if committed by someone 18 years or older. Some offenses can also lead to a child being prosecuted as an adult.
Dependency: Dependency is an umbrella term in which a child's situation requires court involvement even though there is technically no one at fault. Children services agencies are usually involved in these cases.
Abuse: In abuse cases, parents are accused of causing harm to a child directly, most often through physical contact. Abuse cases typically involve criminal charges too and a threat of loss of parental rights.
Neglect: As opposed to abuse, neglect is a more indirect form of mistreatment, involving inadequate living conditions, or not providing adequate care. As in abuse cases, criminal charges are common, as is a threat of a loss of parental rights.
