The article considers the foreign experience of functioning of juvenile judiciary bodies, whose activity is directed to ensuring and protecting the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of minors. Two organized basic models of juvenile justice have been examined: continental and Anglo-American. It is stated that this gradation is conditional, and all the states are looking for their own approaches to the administrative legal protection of children's rights, forming their own models of juvenile justice. It is noted that states with a high level of socio-economic development create an extensive network of juvenile justice agencies that allows them to overtake and set up protection to all aspects of minors’ life, ensuring a high-quality level in all sectors. In developed foreign countries, a comprehensive system of prophylaxes and prevention of neglect, as well as bringing minors to legal and other responsibility, has been established and is functioning. The juvenile judiciary system in these countries is integrated, well-coordinated, and complete.
World experience shows that different countries are looking for their own approaches to the administrative and legal protection of children's rights, forming their own models of the juvenile justice system.
