Orlando Rape Lawyer

Under the terms of Florida Statute 794.011, you can be arrested for rape if you misunderstand your partner’s willingness to engage in a sexual act. Florida calls this sexual battery, and at best, you are looking at as many as nine years in jail. At worst, you might spend the rest of your life in confinement. There are also civil ramifications. Even if you escape harsh sentencing, you will likely be labeled as a sexual offender. For the rest of your life, you will have to register not only with Florida, but with the federal government. This will affect you whenever you move to a new home or take a new job.
