Weatherford Lawyer for Misdemeanor Sex Crimes
Even a misdemeanor conviction for a sexual offense has the potential to drastically alter the course of your life. Common misdemeanor sex crimes include:
- Public lewdness - Behaving in a manner that is explicitly sexual in a public place where others may see can be a crime in some cases.
- Indecent exposure - Exposing the genitals, buttocks, or female breasts in public can lead to this charge.
- First-time prostitution - If this is your first arrest for prostitution, you may be charged with a misdemeanor rather than a felony.
Many of these offenses stem from less serious conduct that was not designed to cause harm to another. However, even a minor lapse in judgment that leads to one of these charges can have a significant impact on your life. We will strive to stop this type of mistake from carrying a lifelong stigma and difficulties.
Sex Crime Felonies Attorney Serving Northern Texas
If you are facing a felony sex crime, the seriousness of your situation cannot be understated. You are likely facing a long prison term and collateral consequences that can follow you for the rest of your life and even affect your loved ones. Sexual felonies in Texas include:
- Sexual assault - Rape is among the most serious of all sex offenses - in fact, it is one of the most serious offenses in general. Sexual assault can also be aggravated, making the charge and penalties even more severe.
- Indecency with a child - Sex crimes involving children in any way are considered to be the worst of the worst offenses. If you are facing charges for any type of sexual conduct with a child, there is a lot at stake. There is little to no leniency offered to child sex offenders.
- Soliciting a prostitute - This is now a felony in Texas.
- Trafficking - Human trafficking is a growing problem nationwide, with sex trafficking being one of the most common forms. Managing illegal sex workers often leads to this charge.
These are only a few of the more common felony sex offenses. Many of these offenses carry decades of prison time. If you are facing sex crime charges, you are in serious legal jeopardy. It is important that you act quickly and find an attorney who can start building up your defense as soon as possible.
