Nevada Solicitation of Prostitution Lawyer

Solicitation for Prostitution Attorneys in Las Vegas & Reno

Contrary to popular belief, prostitution is not legal in Las Vegas or Reno. It is only legal in certain counties in Nevada and even then can only take place in brothels. This misconception makes arrests for solicitation frequent throughout the state. A charge of solicitation in Nevada can bring serious legal consequences, from fines to jail time.

Solicitation of prostitution is defined as actively looking to purchase sexual services from another person. If this is done outside of a jurisdiction and business where prostitution is legal, it is a crime. If you are facing a charge of solicitation of prostitution, you should contact a lawyer immediately.

Our solicitation of prostitution lawyers have over 20 years in the criminal justice field and are standing by to represent you.

Consequences of Solicitation of Prostitution

A conviction of solicitation of prostitution can carry many penalties, including:

• Jail
  The crime is a misdemeanor with a punishment of a maximum of 6 months in jail. First time offenders may be spared jail time.
• Fines
  You may be fined up to $1000 if you are convicted.

Failure to Appear

Some out-of-towners do not appear for their court date. This makes things much worse. First, an arrest warrant will be issued. This warrant will be sent to authorities in your area, where you will be arrested and extradited. You will then have to stand trial for failure to appear as well as for solicitation of prostitution. Fleeing may also disqualify you from any first time offender leniency.

Defending You with Strength

The law allows you to be absent during your proceedings if a prostitution lawyer is representing you. This saves you not only time and money, but the embarrassment and other negative consequences of a solicitation of prostitution charge. Criminal charges are serious and convictions can carry severe consequences. Call a solicitation of prostitution lawyer at Diaz & Galt, Attorneys at Law for a free consultation.
