About Juvenile Law Cases in Thousand Oaks, Ventura County
Juvenile matters arising in Thousand Oaks are heard in the Juvenile Division of the Ventura County Superior Court, which handles both delinquency petitions (juvenile “criminal” cases) under California Welfare & Institutions Code §602 and dependency proceedings involving alleged abuse or neglect (WIC §300). Juvenile court is fundamentally different from adult court — the focus is rehabilitation rather than punishment, records can often be sealed later under WIC §781 and §786, and the procedural rules protect minors’ rights in ways parents and students often don’t know exist.
We represent Thousand Oaks minors and families in delinquency petitions, dependency matters, and school discipline proceedings including expulsion hearings, IEP disputes, and Section 504 issues — see our education advocacy page for more. In a recent case, we represented a Thousand Oaks-area student facing an expulsion recommendation and secured a stipulated agreement that kept the student enrolled and cleared the record. Outcomes like that turn on early advocacy and knowing how the local school district, juvenile probation office, and Ventura County judges actually operate day-to-day.
Attorney Hali Ford is a California State Bar-licensed attorney with hands-on juvenile court experience across Ventura County.

MEET THE ATTORNEY
Hali Ford
A Fierce Advocate For Ventura County Families
Hali Ford founded Freedom Law 805 to protect clients’ rights and fight for their freedom—whether from criminal accusations, family disputes, or juvenile court challenges.
Public Defender
Her skills in depositions, trial work, and cross-examination are outstanding and she knows exactly how to elicit the right testimony. She fought for me during an especially difficult situation, where my ex was involved with his attorney — something that complicated the dynamics significantly.
Her balanced approach between litigation and settlement is rare and invaluable. Since my case was transferred to her, not only did I feel more protected legally, but my mental health significantly improved as well.
If you are looking for someone who will truly stand by you, advocate for truth, and handle even the most complex situations with skill and compassion, I can’t recommend Hali enough.
