HOW JUSTICE REFORM HELPS KIDS

There has been a lot of press, both in local newspapers and from us here, about how overcrowded the prisons are in OK. One idea to help ease the overcrowding is to reclassify certain crimes, and this is done through an overhaul of our criminal justice system. This topic always come up, in ever legislative session, and now is no different. The most visible beneficiary of reform are the actual defendants, but the effects are more far reaching than to just the accused. Many children are living with at least one parent in jail, and making changes to the criminal justice system might give a child back his mom or dad. When both parents are behind bars, the only choice at times is for a child to go into the foster care system – which is also overburdened. Until meaningful change is made, let us take on your case and do our best to protect your rights and keep you with your family. We focus on helping people charged with a crime and can help you too!
