Legal Question in Criminal Law in Missouri

The amount of time that a person facing a criminal charge is looking at is determined by the statutes controlling the exact crime that the defendant is charged with violating. So, a person does not face the same penalty for "indecent exposure" as the person would face for "rape". Due to the delicate nature of the subject matter, you may feel better discussing this topic privately and confidentially with an attorney. If you have already been charged, the attorney can look up the statutes and give you a specific response. I have handled a substantial number of sex-related offenses over the thirty-three years that I have been practicing law, and I would be willing to give you a free telephone consultation. Please feel free to contact me.
