Statutory Rape Charges — Unlawful Sexual Intercourse With a Minor
Under California law, statutory rape involves sex between a person over the age of 18 and a person under the age of 18; if the older person is more than three years older than the younger person, and especially if the older person is over 21 and the younger person is under 16, the penalties are more severe. Since any sexual assault conviction (including statutory rape) is considered a felony by the federal government, a statutory rape can impact the citizenship status of an immigrant and lead to deportation. We have represented many clients against charges of unlawful sexual intercourse and similar offenses.
Indecency, Solicitation and Lewd Conduct Charges
In California, a conviction of indecent exposure, solicitation or lewd conduct can result in fines, jail time and registration as a sex offender that can adversely impact numerous areas of your life. As an attorney experienced with these matters, David Smith has a detailed knowledge of state decency laws and related local ordinances, having represented individuals and establishments against felony and misdemeanor charges and civil complaints.
