Understanding the Penalties of a Conviction
Being convicted of a sex offense can not only lead to a lengthy prison sentence, restitution, and a variety of other penalties, but you could also be forced to classify yourself as a sex offender. If you register as a sex offender, this will become public information accessible by anyone who is looking for it. It may be difficult for you to maintain or build personal relationships, keep or find employment, or even get a loan or housing in the future. We work hard to prevent convictions on behalf of our clients, as we understand exactly what is on the line.
To convict you of a sexual assault in Virginia, a prosecutor must typically (but not always) establish the following:
- Your intent at the time of the alleged assault
- The complaining witness' lack of consent
- Use of force, threat, or intimidation
