Prostitution
In New Hampshire, as in most of the country, prostitution is illegal.
It is frowned upon in society for people to use sex to make financial gains. A prostitute is a person, most typically a woman, who engages in sexual activity for money. She may also be forced to give some of that money to a pimp, who sends her out to perform these sex acts.
Communities across the county renounce this kind of activity and police and other law enforcement authorities are constantly on the lookout for prostitutes. They arrest them in an attempt to get them off the streets.
If you have been arrested on prostitution charges, you’ll want to seek the services of a criminal defense lawyer who is experienced in dealing with sex crimes.

It is important to talk to your attorney about your case before you talk to investigators or detectives.

A prostitute is someone who is accused of engaging, or “soliciting,” in sexual activities in return for a payment. Prostitutes depend upon this money for a living.
In New Hampshire, this is typically a misdemeanor, but it is certainly not a conviction - or even an arrest - that you want on your record for all future employers to see. With a misdemeanor, you can still be ordered to jail for up to a year and have to pay up to $2,000 in fines.
If you are under 18, the penalty can be even more harsh. This can be considered a Class B felony. If you are convicted on this kind of charge, you could be facing between 3 ½ to 7 years in jail. The fines in this case would rise to up to $4,000. Most typically it is the “pimps” who are charged with felonies.
Michael Anzalone will want to consult with you to figure out whether your case is strong enough to stand up to the prosecution. If not, he may recommend trying to work out a plea deal, or an arrangement with prosecutors to plead guilty in exchange for a suspended sentence, or even probation.
It is our goal to help you get back on your feet as soon as possible.
We know that an arrest can wreck your life. Again, you don’t want this kind of charge on your record.
