Potential Penalties for Prostitution Convictions
Beyond immediate fines and potential incarceration, convictions can lead to long-term repercussions, including barriers to employment and housing and lasting damage to personal relationships. Understanding the scope of these penalties is critical for anyone confronting such allegations.
Fines can range widely, with higher amounts applied to repeat violations or aggravating factors. Jail time is often a possibility, with sentence lengths determined by both the charge and judicial discretion. Convictions can also bring mandatory counseling, community service, or probation, disrupting day-to-day life and imposing additional challenges.
Humphrey & Thompson understands the significant impact these penalties can have. With a deep knowledge of the legal system gained as former prosecutors, we approach each case with an eye for reducing consequences and protecting rights. We work with determination to address these charges and advocate for the best possible resolution for our clients.

Due to the distance away from the Bakersfield area I was able to deal with the firm by phone and email. Phone service was very timely and they made me feel comfortable. If needed, I would use their services again and recommend this law office.

My husband hired Jared Thompson to defend him against bogus charges. Their price was affordable and well worth the work they put in. Even though the DA's office was not helpful and kept delaying the case over and over, Mr. Thompson and his team never gave up. It was finally dismissed and we couldn't be more happy with the outcome.

Needed a lawyer for our juvenile son for a felony assault case. Public defender was not very helpful and told us that at best our son would be on a very intensive probation for years if not sentenced to a camp. Rob Singh took our case and basically got everything resolved outside of court with the prosecutor within 2 weeks. Alleviated a lot of stress and anxiety by getting our son on a very minimal probation for 6 months and then records completely sealed. Highly recommended and would definitely hire this firm again.- Erik S.

His experience and knowing what to do helped and he has wisdom in sharing and saying the right thing to calm you in whatever you are going through. At times I was talked to as if I knew the law but when questioned what he was talking about he would take the time to explain. He is a very busy man so it seemed like he was hurried but would come back to explain. Happy with the outcome and glad that we were able to find a great attorney.

My son was wrongfully accused and charged with assault. I hired Mr. Humphrey to represent him because I heard he was the best and as my son is 19 years old, I did not want this bogus charge going on his record. Mr. Humphrey did an excellent job of representing my son from day one. I am happy to say that the charges were dropped and the case was dismissed. I HIGHLY recommend Kyle J. Humphrey.
