Advocating For College Students Facing Criminal Charges
Making mistakes is a part of growing up. However, a poor decision should not derail a bright future. If you have a child who is in college and has been charged with a crime, it is important to seek help from an experienced lawyer as soon as possible.
At Law Offices of John C. Rentz, P.C., our attorney is dedicated to protecting the rights and futures of college students throughout the Denton area. As a former prosecutor and lifelong Texan, our lawyer knows the local court system and how to build an effective defense against criminal charges.
We Defend Against All Criminal Charges
We represent students who have been charged with all types of crimes, including:
- Drug possession
- Underage drinking/minor in possession of alcohol
- Sexual assault
- Vandalism
It is disappointing for a parent to learn that their child has been charged with a crime. It can be tempting to “teach them a lesson” and let them plead guilty. However, a criminal conviction is not something that goes away. It will follow your child for life, impacting their ability to find housing and employment. Certain convictions will result in them losing their financial aid. A student may also face expulsion from college, regardless of the outcome of the criminal proceeding. All criminal allegations are serious, and all allegations deserve to be met with an equally serious defense. We provide representation both in court and in college disciplinary hearings.
