Whether or not you are under age 18 is irrelevant.  If you did something illegal in accessing their site, they could potentially charge you as a violation of a federal statute.  If you are in New Jersey and the company is in New York, it becomes a federal crime as opposed to a state crime because the parties are in different states. there is a specific division within the FBI that was created to address this type of crime, and unauthorized access to a protected site is a crime.  The potential claim against you is going to depend on what type of site you hacked.
