Frye Law - August 2019

IS YOUR KID READY? SCHOOL IS IN SESSION: Ready or not, school is back in session. If your high school kids are starting the college application process, then they can easily run into a couple of roadblocks if they’ve had some minor scrapes with the law. For example, an alcohol offense, such as a minor in possession, can keep a bright student from getting into a competitive college. Students are asked to disclose these offenses on their applications, so knowing how to answer these questions on the college forms can make or break a teen’s chance to get into the college they desire. Fortunately, attorney Kim Frye can help with this process. If your child has been charged at some point in their past, be sure to give our office a call before you start filling out those applications. Furthermore, when students venture to school with a pending misdemeanor, they’ll likely experience some major frustration. They finally have their first real taste of freedom and independence being out of their parent’s house for the first time, but, due to one poor decision, they have to frame their whole lives around their offense. It’s for this reason that misdemeanors need to be taken care of before a teen heads to college. Lastly, even if students get into the college of their choice unscathed, the college experience tends to facilitate ample opportunities for partying. Even a minor infraction can result in expulsion from a fraternity or sorority, months on academic probation, and even suspension from school.

Young people make mistakes that may land them in the criminal justice system. Regardless of whether it is a felony or misdemeanor, the repercussions of a conviction may harm them for years. Kim takes pride in fighting for her clients, and she has helped hundreds of young people avoid entering adulthood with a criminal conviction. If you need help with a case, or if you need help filling out college application forms, call Kim today!

“They can be stopped by removing the head or destroying the brain.”

1. Heat a cast-iron skillet to high. Char corn, turning occasionally, for 10–14 minutes until kernels begin to blacken in spots. 2. Using a sharp knife, remove corn kernels from cobs and transfer to a large mixing bowl. 3. With a wooden spoon or potato masher, gently crush corn to release starch and juices. 4. Add jalapeño, onion, tomato, and cilantro. Mix to combine.
