Defending Sex Offenses in Solano County

A lawyer at Maas Law Offices can offer you a free confidential case evaluation if you are facing sex offense charges. Some of the sex offense cases we handle include (but are not limited to) child molestation, child pornography and date rape. The state of California defines the crime of rape as unwanted, forced or nonconsensual sexual intercourse. When an adult is caught having sexual intercourse with a minor under 18 years of age, they may be charged with statutory rape. Those who are convicted of statutory rape may be subject to severe penalties under the law even if the alleged victim initiated the sexual activity or gave full consent. If you are convicted of a sex offense with a minor, such as improper sexual acts with a minor or solicitation, you may be required to register as a sex offender for the rest of your life.

If you have willingly exposed yourself in a public place or in a place that may be seen by others, you may be charged with indecent exposure. Lewd conduct is similar to indecent exposure and is the term given to the sexual act of publicly revealing oneself.
