Frequently Asked Questions
What happens after an arrest for statutory rape?
After an arrest, the police send your case to the prosecutor, and you appear at a local court arraignment. You may face hearings, bail considerations, and opportunities to meet with your legal team as your case advances.
Will my case go to trial?
Many cases do not go to trial and may be resolved through discussions, legal motions, or other court procedures. Every situation depends on its facts and the decisions made as your defense progresses.
Can the charges be reduced or dismissed?
Charges can change during the legal process based on evidence and legal arguments. Your attorney will review your situation and explain what options exist in your case.
What penalties could I face if convicted?
Penalties depend on the statute at issue and the facts in your case, and may include jail or prison, probation, or registration requirements. Case details strongly affect the potential outcome, so review all information with your lawyer.
How soon should I contact a lawyer if I learn about an investigation?
Contact a lawyer immediately if you learn about an investigation or possible charges. Early legal advice allows you to protect your rights and avoid mistakes that could hurt your case.
