Conroe, Texas Juvenile Defense Attorney James Sullivan spends hours with clients and
their families, discussing legal strategy to defend their child and also
life strategy to get their child on a better path. Too many juveniles
get lost in the juvenile system and later wind up in the criminal system
as young as age 17. Some youth die of drug use or criminal violence
before they even have a meaningful chance at life.
James Sullivan is Board Certified in Juvenile Law since 2004. He is one of only 38 such lawyers in private practice in the entire Lone Star State. He has 25 years experience defending juveniles and adults throughout Texas.
Recently, as reported in the Houston Chronicle,
a 17 year old female high school student in Forth Worth was killed
while allegedly robbing the occupants of a house along with two 21 year
old men. What a wasted life. This is exactly what Attorney Jim
Sullivan counsels today's youth to avoid--criminal behavior and
associating with criminals. Had this girl focused on her school work
and only made friends with positive youth, she likely would have had a
good and long life. Fortunately, most of Sullivan's clients connect
with him, his message and strive to do better.
