Cyber Sex Crimes Are Serious
A teenager sends a nude picture of him or herself to a classmate, perhaps a girlfriend or boyfriend. An adult enters and Internet chatroom filled with minors and uses explicit sexual language. People who do these and similar acts are often caught by surprise when they find themselves facing a serious sex crime charge.
Selecting a lawyer who knows how to fight these serious charges is critical to your future. One misstep, even for a juvenile accused of these crimes, could have a serious impact: fines and incarceration, and sex offender registration that can be seen by employers, landlords and colleges.

Depend On Our Experienced Juvenile Law Defense
A teenager sending a nude picture of him or herself on the phone via text message is actually considered to be transmitting child pornography, even if that message is intended for a boyfriend or girlfriend of the same age. The person who receives the message can be accused of possessing child pornography. There have been many cases in which nude photos of a student have spread around a school and any number of teens can find themselves facing charges related to the distribution or possession of child porn.
