Indecent Exposure Defense in Los Angeles

Los Angeles Indecent Exposure Defense Lawyer

Indecent exposure charges may be either a misdemeanor or a felony charge, depending on the circumstances surrounding the alleged incident.  These cases involve the exposure of the genitals to others in a public place that is found to be offensive, harassing or annoying to another person.  When a prank results in a criminal charge, it can be a frightening and disturbing experience.  However, the arrest is only the beginning of the process, and if you are convicted, there is the possibility that you will face jail or prison time as well as fines and community service.  In the most serious cases, usually regarding children, a convicted individual may have to register as a sex offender.  If you have been arrested and charged with indecent exposure, it is critical that you contact a Los Angeles indecent exposure defense lawyer at once.
