At our firm, our criminal defense attorneys handle all types of sexual assault charges and related offenses:
First-, second- and third-degree sexual assaults are felony offenses.
Fourth-degree sexual assault, lewd and lascivious behavior and sexual gratification are misdemeanor offenses.
Sexual assault of a child (sometimes referred to as child molestation) who is under the age of 15 is a felony offense.
Sexual intercourse with a child (commonly referred to as statutory rape) who is over the age of 16 is a misdemeanor offense.
Each of these offenses carries serious penalties. The penalties you face will depend on the level of the offense you are charged with and whether you have had previous convictions.
Our attorneys can clearly explain the penalties you are facing and help you understand your options for fighting these charges.
