Los Angeles Solicitation Attorney

Solicitation of Prostitution Lawyer in Los Angeles

Solicitation of prostitution is a charge related to prostitution, but it is filed against the alleged client or customer of a person who is exchanging or offering sexual activity for money. In fact, a person may face solicitation of prostitution charges even when the actual exchange does not take place. For example, a defendant may face charges because he or she offered another person money in exchange for sexual intercourse.

Any regular, law-abiding citizen may find that they are facing solicitation charges simply because they were in the wrong place at the wrong time. A visit to a massage parlor or a simple conversation with a stranger may be misinterpreted for something that it is not – even when the accused had no idea what was occurring. Entrapment may also play a part in these cases, where a police sting operation is set up in order to catch offenders in the act.
