New York City Prostitution Defense Lawyers

New York Solicitation Attorneys

Our firm represents clients accused of New York prostitution and solicitation charges. These charges may include:

  • Prostitution
  • Patronizing a prostitute
  • Promoting prostitution
  • Compelling prostitution
  • Permitting prostitution
  • Criminal solicitation

New York prostitution charges range from class B misdemeanor to class B felony and may have a very stigmatizing effect on defendants convicted or even accused of such charges. You need an experienced New York prostitution defense lawyer to represent you and you will find such lawyers at our firm.

If you hire us to defend you, our New York prostitution defense attorneys will examine your case for statutorily permitted defenses and raise them in your defense. While most people are not aware of it, New York law allows people charged with prostitution or patronizing a prostitute to use the fact that they did not know that the person involved was younger than the age specified by law as their defense. On the other hand, it is no defense in a prosecution for prostitution that the parties involved were of the same sex or that the person who paid for sex was a female and the person who accepted the fee was a male. You need a good New York prostitution lawyer to guide your defense and examine all evidence.

We represent people arrested for prostitution in police sting operations as well as persons accused of Internet solicitations. If you have been accuses on a prostitution crime in New York, call our New York prostitution defense lawyers today.
