Orlando Lewd Behavior Defense Attorney

Aggressive Representation for Sex Crimes Charges

Charges of lewd behavior can encompass a very broad range of alleged acts, including the following:

• Improper touching, even over clothes
• Exposure
• Streaking
• Child molestation
• Masturbation in public
• Solicitation of sex in a public place, such as an airport bathroom

Possible Consequences for a Lewd Behavior Conviction

While an act that is labeled "lewd behavior" may be misinterpreted or exaggerated in the viewer's interpretation of it, a conviction for any sex crime can have severe consequences.

A "mistake" triggered by a drunken or drugged altered state of consciousness may have very serious repercussions such as the following:

• A sullied reputation
• Irreparable damage to one's career as a teacher or public figure, for example
• Jail or prison time, perhaps for a long time
• Probation (if incarceration is avoided)
• Parole (after imprisonment)
• Fines and fees
• Sex crime registry
• Obstacles to a wide range of future life goals, such as entry into certain careers, securing of housing, travel abroad (in some cases), adoption of children, entry into the military, and more

Defenses Against Lewd Behavior Charges

Defense in a lewd behavior case may involve questions such as the following:

• Did the complaining witness have reason to lie or exaggerate?
• If the accuser is a child, was the child coerced by someone such as an ex-spouse or former lover to lie or exaggerate?
• Can the alleged actions be proven beyond a shadow of a doubt?
