Penalties for Sex Crimes
Misdemeanor Sex Crimes
Penalties may include fines, probation, and up to one year in county jail. First-time offenders may qualify for diversion or counseling programs.
Felony Sex Crimes
Felony charges often carry mandatory sex offender registration and multi-year prison terms. Some offenses are “wobblers” and can be charged as either misdemeanors or felonies.
Internet Sex Crimes and Related Offenses
We also defend clients against online and digital sex crimes including child pornography, solicitation, and chatroom offenses. These charges often involve federal agencies and aggressive prosecution.
