The Juvenile Court Division of the DeKalb County District Attorney’s Office prosecutes individuals under age 17 who are accused of committing a crime in DeKalb County. The Division's mission is to restore and redirect youth so they will become law abiding citizens. Juvenile Court's goal is to protect both a child's and the community's best interest. The Division also recommends appropriate services for children and families who are in crisis.

Juvenile Court hearings are held before a judge and not a jury.

The Division is led by Deputy Chief Assistant District Attorney Darrius Pattillo and is operated by five assistant district attorneys, five investigators, four paralegals, three secretaries and an office manager.

Juvenile Court is located at 4309 Memorial Dr., Decatur, GA 30032. The main number is 404-294-2720.  Contact the Juvenile Court Division for more information.
