Facing sex crime charges can destroy your reputation, career, and future. One misunderstanding about Texas age of consent laws could lead to decades in prison and mandatory sex offender registration. Many people believe the age of consent is 18 everywhere in the United States, but Texas law sets the age of consent at 17 with several important exceptions that could mean the difference between legal conduct and serious felony charges. At the Law Offices of Richard C. McConathy, we have extensive experience defending clients facing sex crime allegations in Dallas and throughout North Texas.
