The Potential Consequences of a Glen Burnie, Maryland Sex Crime Conviction

Whether you are being charged with a misdemeanor or felony offense, a sex crime conviction can permanently alter your life. You will likely spend time behind bars. Even if you are paroled or released, you are required to register as a sex offender for a minimum of 15 years. If you move to a different state, your sex offender registration requirements will move with you.

The limitations you could face are extensive. You may be restricted from seeing your children or being within a certain distance of other children. Because your conviction will appear on a background check, your employment and housing options, along with financial borrowing power, will likely be minimal. The social implications are also problematic.

The moment you realize you are a suspect in a sex crime investigation, invoke your right to remain silent and call us. We will immediately take action to ensure that your rights are protected.
