Chandler Sexual Conduct With a Minor Lawyer

In Arizona, under A.R.S §13-1405, a person commits the crime of sexual conduct with a minor by intentionally or knowingly engaging in sexual intercourse or oral sexual contact with any person who is under eighteen years of age. The age of the minor will also be a factor. If the conduct was with a minor under the age of 15-years old, it is a class 2 felony. Whereas sexual conduct with a minor who is at least fifteen years of age is a class 6 felony.

Unlike Child Molestation, which involves the touching, fondling, or manipulating of the genitals or anus. Sexual conduct with a minor involves sexual intercourse or any manner of penetration with a minor. In addition, if the victim was under the age of 15 at the time of the offense, it will also qualify as Dangerous Crimes Against Children.

It should also be noted that many sex offenses have no statute of limitation at all. This is very different from many other serious felony offenses which generally have statutes of limitation of seven years. As such, a person could be charged with a serious sex offense regardless of how much time has passed since the alleged incident.

Sexual conduct with a minor is a very serious offense. In fact, it’s one of the most serious crimes someone can be charged with in Arizona. If you are convicted of the crime of sexual conduct with a minor under the age of 15, the minimum prison term is 13 years, and the maximum prison term is 27 years, with the presumptive prison term being 20 years. In Arizona, there is no early release for people convicted of this crime, which means you will serve 100% of your time. In Addition, the term of imprisonment must be served consecutively to any other sentence for any other offense committed at any time.

Even after you are released, you will be required to register as a sex offender per ARS 13-3821 and may be subject to other conditions. This will inhibit your ability to find employment, rent a home or apartment, go to school, and many other areas where a background check is required.

Joey N. Hamby, Esq really went above and beyond for my case. He answered my call in the middle of the night when I was unsure of how to handle the situation regarding a order of protection. after that, he followed up with the case. Joey ensured that all of my legal fees were taken care of and I was in the hands of a good attorney. He also continued to check up on me throughout the course of the time. afterwards, He followed up to ensure that I was satisfied with all service. I would highly recommend using him and A.O.R. and also understand that they do more than just protect you in shooting instances. It covers a lot more than just that. my legal fees would have been well in excess of eight thousand dollars. If I had to pay them out of pocket.

Attorneys for Freedom law firm represented a family member in a serious felony case that went to trial. The family member was facing possible decades in prison if convicted of the false allegations. While the family member was innocent of all the charges leveled against him, we used the expertise of veteran lawyers at Attorneys for Freedom to lead the way through the intricacies of the court system. After weeks of trial, he was found NOT GUILTY.
Joey Hamby and Andy Marcantel did an outstanding job in not only representing the family member in court but also researching all aspects of the case prior to trial. These two experienced trials tested lawyers spent hours with us in preparation to make sure they had all the facts in the case to defend the family member in the best possible way. Those hours paid off from not only working to select the best jurors possible and arranging the correct witnesses to testify on my son's behalf but also defending his rights before the judge and making a solid defense in front of the jury. We want to thank Joey and Andy for walking with us through this horrible ordeal and being at our side every step of the way.
In a serious felony case like this one, you want the best representation possible. We selected the absolute best in Attorneys for Freedom!
