Helping Young Offenders
The Sokolik Law Firm assists juvenile clients and their families by negotiating with the prosecution to reduce the charges. The Sokolik Law Firm also aims to work with prosecutors to ensure that children are charged as minors, not adults. In some cases, by taking this step, children face fewer penalties and are therefore able to move forward with their lives more quickly.
Steven Sokolik has successfully won certification hearings and stopped the prosecutor from being able to charge a minor as an adult, saving that minor from a lengthy prison term in an adult penitentiary.
