How a Denton Prostitution and Sex Crime Lawyer Can Help

Did you know you that you can be charged with prostitution even if no money was ever discussed or exchanged? In Texas, a prostitution case does not even have to involve sexual contact, and the fee does not need to be a type of currency. A lawyer can make sure you understand exactly what charges you are facing and what led to those charges.

If you are facing charges for prostitution and sex crimes, a lawyer in your area can help protect your rights and explain your case so that you understand the difficulties you are about to face. In Texas, your rights start the moment you are arrested. If all of your rights are not adhered to, your arrest and potential charges might not be valid.

According to the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure Article 38.22, you must be informed of your rights during and after an arrest in Denton, which includes:

• The right to remain silent and not answer any questions
• Notification that anything you do or say can be used against you
• The right to have a lawyer by your side during any questioning
• The right to a court-appointed public defender if you cannot afford a lawyer
• The right to end a police interview at any time

Do not make any verbal or written statements to the police at all. It is important that you do not resist arrest, waive away or relinquish your rights, or answer any questions. Get legal advice on how to protect your rights after your arrest by calling the Law Offices of Randall B. Isenberg at (214) 696-9253.

Classifications and Penalties for Sex Crimes

The shame and humiliation of any arrest can be demoralizing and stigmatizing. The criminal penalties of an arrest can make an already stressful situation much worse. According to how they are classified in the Texas Politics Project, being charged with prostitution and/or sex crimes could mean that you will face a variety of criminal penalties. Punishments include:

• Class A misdemeanor: 1 year of imprisonment and a $4,000 fine
• Class B misdemeanor: 180 days of imprisonment and a $2,000 fine
• Class C misdemeanor: A $500 fine
• State jail felony: 180 days to 2 years of imprisonment and a $10,000 fine

The financial penalties of these charges can create economic hardship for you. The penalties that lead to imprisonment can separate you from your family, friends, and colleagues. Imprisonment can place your employment in temporary and often permanent jeopardy.

You do not have to accept these criminal charges or their penalties without a fight. A Denton prostitution and sex crime lawyer can help you minimize any financial penalties and jail time, so that you have the best chances of getting your life back on track.

Time Can Affect The Outcome of Your Case

If you are accused of prostitution or any other sex-related crime in Denton, the state of Texas has a limited amount of time to charge you with a crime. This is called the statute of limitations, and it plays an important role in your case.

• A misdemeanor criminal charge in Texas has a statute of limitations of up to two years from the date the alleged crime took place
• A felony charge may have no limitation or a statute of limitations of up to 10 years, depending on the severity of the criminal sexual charges

A Denton prostitution and sex crime lawyer can help you determine how time will affect your pending criminal charges. Your lawyer can also discuss your legal options in the event that the state does not formally charge you with a crime in the allotted amount of time.

The Possible Consequences of a DWI

A DWI charge is a very serious matter. The public outcry against drunk driving and stricter laws make this offense—and the possible penalties—potentially devastating for your career and relationships.

From a first offense to a repeated offense, the outcomes are different but no less severe.

For example, according to the Texas Department of Transportation, your DWI could be accompanied by additional charges if:

• A minor passenger was in the vehicle at the time of your arrest
• An open alcohol container was present in the vehicle when you were stopped by a law enforcement official
• You were involved in a collision that resulted in death or injuries

If convicted, you may face one or more of the following court-ordered penalties:

• Expensive fines
• Court costs and associated fees
• Lengthy suspension of your license
• Possible jail or prison time

After being charged with a DWI, to protect your future, you likely want to work with a law firm that has your best interests in mind. Our legal team understands Texas law as it applies to DWI charges. We apply these laws—and your rights—to every case we review.

Securing the services of a legal defense team is one of the first steps you can take to protect your future. The Denton DWI reduction lawyer assigned to your case will keep you informed throughout the process and answer any questions you may have.

We understand that the legal process is often daunting. While there is no way to predict how a prosecutor will respond to your case, we can take all measures within our power to secure a favorable ruling on your behalf.

A Denton DWI Reduction Lawyer May Reduce Your Charges

As criminal defense attorneys, we may be able to negotiate with the prosecutor to get the charges dropped or reduced.

If we are able to reduce the charges against you, your DWI could be lessened to:

• Reckless driving
• Public intoxication
• Obstruction of passageway

Reducing your charges from a possible felony to a misdemeanor can have an important impact on your life. A felony DWI conviction remains on your criminal record. It is impossible to get such a conviction expunged.

While a misdemeanor charge still involves possible fines and penalties, the reduction prevents you from having a permanent criminal record. This is often invaluable when it comes to maintaining (or securing) employment.

Our Legal Team Examines the Evidence in Your Case

Proving that your case deserves consideration for a reduced charge or a dismissal involves a look at the evidence by our legal team.

Elements we examine in DWI cases include:

• A possible malfunction of a blood or alcohol test
• Any violations of your legal rights
• Errors that occurred with your arrest

The Law Offices of Randall B. Isenberg offers free case evaluations, leaving you nothing to lose by discussing your case with a member of our team. Time is of the essence, so do not delay. Call the Law Offices of Randall B. Isenberg now at (214) 696-9253.
