Houston Public Lewdness Attorney |

Allegations of public lewdness or indecent exposure are devastating to a person’s reputation in the community. Being accused of this type of crime can affect your family life, your job and the opportunities that are available to you in the future. Allegations of sex offenses often stem from misunderstandings or false allegations made by witnesses with a bias or motive to report an incident in a certain way. A quality criminal defense attorney can help you effectively present these motives to law enforcement and to the court.

• Sexual intercourse
