Facing a difficult allegation of sexual assault or other sex crimes? I am attorney Mark Kraynak, and I help protect the rights of the accused. With over 25 years of experience, I will do what it takes to provide you with the dedicated representation you need during this challenging time.
What Constitutes Sexual Assault?
Sexual assault includes a range of nonconsensual sexual activities. This can involve unwanted touching, forced intercourse and any sexual activity where one party is unable to give consent due to incapacitation or age.
It is important that you understand the specific charges against you so you can develop a strong defense strategy. As your lawyer at Mark E. Kraynak, P.C., I will carefully review the details of your case to identify the legal approach that fits your situation.
What Potential Penalties Do You Face If You Are Convicted?
A conviction for sexual assault, which is a felony in Colorado, carries significant consequences. The penalties can vary depending on the severity of the offense, but they generally include:
- Lengthy prison sentences, which can range from 2 to 24 years depending on whether it is a Class 4, Class 3 or Class 2 felony
- Substantial fines that can range from $2,000 to $1,000,000
- Probation, which may include strict conditions and regular check-ins
- Mandatory counseling or treatment programs
- Community service requirements
- A permanent criminal record
- Sex offender registry
Being placed on the sex offender registry is one of the most severe consequences of a sexual assault conviction. This registry is a public record that can limit your employment opportunities, affect your housing options and restrict your ability to engage in certain community activities. You must regularly update your personal information if you are on the sex offender registry. Failing to comply with these and other requirements can result in additional criminal penalties.
