Hackensack sexual assault attorney Adam M. Lustberg releases a new article (https://www.lustberglaw.com/sex-crimes/sexual-assault-attorney/) that explains the penalties of aggravated sexual assault in New Jersey. The lawyer mentions that New Jersey law enforcement is on high alert when it comes to sex crimes and accusations of sexual assault and child sexual abuse.
“Even before a conviction, when charged with sexual assault in NJ, your life, reputation, professional career, and family may be turned upside down. The damage could be irreparable even if you are ultimately found not guilty. Moreover, if convicted of a sex crime, you may face a long prison sentence followed by stringent periods of closely supervised probation,” says the Hackensack sexual assault attorney.
The lawyer explains that sexual assault crimes are among the most challenging cases to defend in New Jersey. Getting the help of a skilled criminal defense attorney may be able to help the defendant protect their freedom. If an individual is forced to go to trial, the attorney should be able to properly interview witnesses, ask the right questions, and be very logical based on the evidence available.
Attorney Adam M. Lustberg mentions that N.J.S.A. 2C:14-2 defines sexual assault as penetration, no matter how slight or whether with an object or body part while using physical force or coercion on a victim who is physically or mentally incapacitated. Aggravated sexual assault is also a first-degree crime that is punishable by up to 20 years of incarceration under Megan’s law.
In the article, attorney Lustberg explains that all categories of sexual assault are considered first-degree crimes because of the harm it does to a victim. Laws surrounding aggravated sexual assault are very detailed and complex, so it is very important to seek the help of an experienced criminal defense lawyer.
According to the criminal defense lawyer, “If convicted of sexual assault in NJ, you will also be required to register with the New Jersey Sex Offender Registry. This could permanently affect your ability to ever assimilate into a community or lead a productive, rehabilitated life. In some cases, you may only need to register for several years, or you may be required to remain on the sex registry for life.”
Lastly, attorney Lustberg emphasizes the importance of having a skilled lawyer when facing charges of sexual assault. An experienced lawyer may be able to help the defendant protect their rights and their freedom.
