Rainy Friday in the Tarheel State that has plans to stay around all weekend. We hope everyone stays safe and warm as we wrap up September.
Tip of the Week - Before You Please
Talk to your client about the impacts of an adjudication. While not as public as adult criminal convictions, juvenile adjudications may impact the following: immigration status, educational placement, housing conditions, eligibility to play sports, placement on a sex offender registry (in N.C. or other states) and others. Always consider the long-term consequences of what may first appear to be a short-term decision.
Postponed!
