Criminal Defense Lawyers in Fort Myers, Florida
It is a sad truth that even in the face of factual innocence and false allegations that a defendant is not likely to see justice unless he or she has a skilled criminal defense lawyer on his or her side. At Voelker Law, we understand this firsthand. That is why we are so dedicated to helping people.
A person may face prostitution charges even if he or she did not actually engage in sexual activity for money. Offering sex for money or money for sex is also a criminal offense and a violation of the law in this manner may result in the same penalties as for prostitution. Additionally, a person may face criminal charges after soliciting an undercover officer. These cases can be tricky and it may be hard to understand whether you were the victim of entrapment.
To find out how you can avoid a conviction and the penalties associated with a prostitution or lewd acts conviction, contact a Fort Myers defense attorney at Voelker Law today!
