Los Angeles Lewd Conduct Attorney

Lewd Conduct Lawyer in Los Angeles

Many people charged with lewd conduct in the Los Angeles area end up with a conviction because they didn't have a full understanding of the law that defines the issue and because they did not have effective legal representation for their case. Section 647(a) of the California penal code defines the conditions that will be considered lewd conduct as well as the penalties you will experience if you are convicted. The definition is open to some interpretation based on the language used and many times an effective defense is possible even in the worst cases. When it involves a minor, the penalties can be much harsher.

A Los Angeles child pornography defense lawyer may be necessary for you to avoid being found guilty of lewd conduct and having to live with the consequences. If you lose your case you can be sent to jail or placed on probation, as well as having to register as a sex offender wherever you live for the rest of your life.

It is important not make any statements to law enforcement without the presence of your attorney. The terms of this charge are uniquely open to interpretation, given that the crime of lewd conduct is based on the fact of offending another person. It is entirely possible to ruin your chances of a successful defense based on what you say to the police, judge and anyone else involved in the case. Make sure you have a lawyer with you who cares to protect your rights and will fight to get you out of this situation with a clean reputation.
