Child Pornography Allegation Representation

Cases involving children are prosecuted aggressively. Traps are set by police pretending to be others creating or sharing pornography. You may succumb to this ploy.

Defending Those Charged With Online Solicitation Of A Minor

A majority of Americans use the Internet to some degree, and this includes minors. Online users interact in a wide variety of ways, from chat rooms, to blogs, and emails. Police hunt predators by pretending to be a minor open to sex. Depending on the interaction, you could be accused of soliciting sex and prosecuted.

Electronic and digital devices and uses continue to be developed. Phones can now perform many functions of a computer. “Sexting” is sending pornographic pictures to or from a phone. Possession of photos of minors on a phone is just as illegal as on a computer.

Unlike any other crime, conviction of certain sex offenses mandates the lifelong consequence of registration on a sex offender registry. The public will have knowledge of your conviction, leading to embarrassment, ostracism and potentially other concrete problems such as finding housing and employment.
