Online Solicitation Defense in Arizona and New Mexico
Cases of online solicitation of minors often involve many factors. Law enforcement may enter an online chat room, posing as a minor. In the course of computer communications the undercover police officer will try to get you to send him pictures of a sexual nature. The officer portraying a minor or child may have agreed to meet you at an outside location, such as a park or other public space. When you arrived at the chosen location, the authorities were waiting to arrest you for online solicitation or enticing or luring of minors.
This scenario is very complicated, because it does not allow you to argue the online communication was fictional — evidence exists that there was going to be a "hands-on" offense. If this scenario or something comparable has taken place, resulting in formal charges, it is imperative that you contact an experienced sex crimes attorney who has handled cases involving the defense of online solicitation, enticing and luring.

Online Solicitation of Children and Minor Teens
Online solicitation occurs when an adult communicates with a minor online and solicits, lures, or entices, or attempts to solicit, lure, or entice the minor to commit a sexual act. An actual meeting between the child and the adult is not required for the government to charge an individual with online solicitation. However, most law enforcement agencies will attempt to setup a meeting in order to deny some of the potential defenses that would otherwise be available to you.
Charges resulting from these acts can bring about severe consequences. As a highly experienced, dedicated team of criminal defense lawyers, we are committed to the protection of your rights and liberties in conjunction with a powerful defense. Our record of success in defending these cases, combined with our extensive knowledge base can offer you peace of mind during these tumultuous times.
