Welcome to Texas Criminal Defense Group Denton!

In Texas, solicitation falls under the broader category of prostitution-related offenses and is typically charged as a Class B misdemeanor. Under the Texas Penal Code, a person can be found guilty of solicitation if they “solicit another in a public place to engage in sexual conduct for hire.” Importantly, an individual can be charged with solicitation even if no money changed hands and no sexual conduct took place.

Penalties for a Class B misdemeanor in Denton can include:

If the individual has prior solicitation or prostitution convictions, the penalties increase significantly. For instance:

Given these severe penalties, it’s essential to consult a Denton criminal defense lawyer as soon as possible if you are facing charges of solicitation.

Related Offenses

In addition to solicitation, Texas law includes other serious prostitution-related offenses, such as aggravated promotion of prostitution and compelling prostitution:

These charges, in addition to solicitation, can have long-term, devastating consequences for anyone facing such accusations in Denton.

Possible Defenses Against Solicitation Charges

In many cases, individuals charged with solicitation were simply in the wrong place at the wrong time, and misunderstandings can occur. For instance, two consenting adults may have agreed to engage in sex without the intent to exchange money, which may not constitute a crime.

Denton solicitation defense attorney may use several potential defenses, including:

Entrapment: Police often use sting operations to apprehend individuals involved in solicitation. If you were arrested during an undercover operation, your attorney may be able to argue that you were a victim of entrapment, meaning law enforcement induced you to commit the offense. In this case, the charges may be reduced or dropped.
