Sexual conduct against a child is a serious sex crime that occurs when an individual engages in two or more acts of sexual conduct with a minor over the course of three months. This charge applies when at least one of the acts involves sexual intercourse, oral sex, anal sex, or aggravated sexual contact with a child under the age of 11. For offenders who are 18 years of age or older, the charge may be brought if two or more such acts are committed against a child under the age of 13.

This offense is treated with the utmost severity by New York law enforcement, investigators, and prosecutors. Convictions can result in prison sentences of up to 25 years, significant fines, and mandatory registration as a sex offender. These charges carry life-altering consequences and should never be taken lightly. Only the most experienced NYC criminal defense lawyers can provide the skilled representation necessary to seek a favorable resolution during this critical time.
