Prostitution and Solicitation of Prostitution in Las Vegas
Contrary to what some people believe, prostitution is not legal in Las Vegas. Although you may have been told that prostitution is legal in Nevada, it is not legal throughout the entire state. In fact, it is only legal in specific counties that have chosen to make it so. It is not legal in Clark County (where Las Vegas is located), Henderson, Laughlin or Boulder City.
If you or someone you know has been accused of prostitution or solicitation of prostitution, you have the right to legal counsel. A Las Vegas criminal defense lawyer at the De Castroverde Law Group can help you by protecting your rights and interests through any and all court proceedings.
As experienced lawyers, we have seen far too many cases where a client is charged with prostitution simply for speaking to a woman or an undercover police officer who is offering sexual acts in exchange for money. A person with no previous criminal record and no intent to commit a crime may find that they are arrested and are facing serious criminal charges for an entirely innocent act. Being accused of soliciting a prostitute is serious. Of course you may face charges and therefore imprisonment, fines, community service and other criminal penalties if you are convicted. You may also face difficulties on the employment front.
