Common Types of Sex Crimes
Sex crimes encompass a wide range of offenses, each carrying significant legal implications. Understanding these various charges is crucial for building an effective defense.
Common types of sex crimes include:
- Sexual Assault: This involves any unwanted sexual contact or behavior forced upon another person without their consent. It is important to differentiate between consensual acts and those that are illegal, as each situation requires a nuanced approach.
- Rape: A severe form of sexual assault, rape involves non-consensual sexual intercourse. The impact on victims can be profound, making it critical to address all aspects sensitively and effectively.
- Statutory Rape: Engaging in sexual activities with a minor, regardless of consent, falls under this category. It is important to understand the specific age laws in Nevada, which can affect the severity of charges and penalties.
- Child Pornography: The possession, distribution, or creation of pornographic material involving minors carries severe penalties and often involves complex legal proceedings.
- Indecent Exposure: Deliberately exposing one's genitals in a public setting with the intent to offend or alarm others. This can often be a misunderstood or misinterpreted charge requiring careful legal consideration.
- Prostitution & Solicitation: Engaging in or soliciting sexual services in exchange for money or other benefits. Understanding the legal delineations within Nevada's unique laws is essential for those charged.
- Sexual Battery: Any unwanted physical contact of a sexual nature that does not result in physical injury, yet still carries significant implications and requires thorough legal defense.
- Sexual Exploitation: Taking advantage of someone for sexual purposes, often involving minors or vulnerable individuals. This charge necessitates a detailed understanding of consent and exploitation definitions.

"Thanks to Mr. Goodman, my situation was resolved with the best possible outcome, and in record time! If you're looking for a criminal defense lawyer in Vegas, he's THE guy."I cannot say enough good things about Mr. Goodman. After being arrested at EDC, I contacted him to represent me in the resulting case. I was terrified of the potential consequences, but he worked his magic and got the case completely DISMISSED - an outcome that I never even dreamed of!
After consulting with a few other lawyers in the Vegas area, Mr. Goodman's professionalism was a breath of fresh air. He clearly knows the law and is very well connected in the city. Above all else, he relentlessly projects power and confidence in his conversations, a critical trait that every lawyer should have. I can't think of anyone I'd rather have negotiating on my behalf.

"He’s hands down the best attorney in Vegas!"Ross Goodman is truly in a league of his own. Once again, he got another one of my cases dismissed - this time a domestic violence charge that never should have been filed in the first place. From the very beginning, Ross treated the case with the seriousness and precision it deserved. He quickly identified the weaknesses in the prosecution’s case, communicated clearly every step of the way, and fought relentlessly to protect my rights and reputation.
What sets him apart is his professionalism, integrity, and genuine commitment to getting justice for his clients. He doesn’t just settle, he wins with strategy, not luck! If you’re ever facing false or exaggerated charges, do yourself a favor and call Ross Goodman. He’s hands down the best attorney in Vegas! - Ayou B.

"I switched and hired Mr. Goodman and could not have been more impressed with the outcome. You do get what you pay for."I met with Mr. Goodman who answered all my questions and knew his stuff. I decided to hire a less expensive attorney but was not happy with the progress ended up being a waste of money with the other guy. I switched and hired Mr. Goodman and could not have been more impressed with the outcome. You do get what you pay for. I should have gone with my gut reaction at the beginning that would have saved me anxiety, time, and money. Don’t make the same mistake.
