Long Beach Solicitation Attorneys
Prostitution is engaging in sexual acts or intercourse with another person for money or compensation. It is illegal in California, and if arrested you may be charged with a felony. Charges relating to engaging money for sex can be brought against both the prostitutes and the customer, and the consequences can be serious.
Solicitation is a crime that occurs when a person pays money or offers incentive for sex. If you have been arrested for solicitation, you may be convicted of a sex crime and face severe consequences, including:
- Fines
- Probation
- Rehabilitation
