Only if you care about your son having a juvenile record and the potential consequences. You can contact your local bar association to get a consultation with a lawyer who practices in this area for a very minor cost, and from that determine if you need formal representation.

Although a juvenile, your son could be sentenced to a juvenile facility. Therefore he needs a lawyer.
