Florida Child Endangerment Penalties

Our state places a high priority on the safety of children, and provides harsh punishments for crimes which place them in danger.

Common charges of child endangerment include:

• If you are caught driving under the influence with a passenger younger than the age of 18 in the vehicle, an offense which carries a penalty of up to nine months in jail and a $2,000 fine.
• If you have been targeted with false accusations of child abuse, such as during or after a divorce if the other parent is seeking to deprive you of timesharing or visitation.

Unless you take action now to defend the case, you could not only be subjected to criminal penalties but could also find yourself the subject of an investigation by the Department of Children and Families, which could lead to a removal of your children from your home.
