An arrest on an allegation of solicitation of a prostitute PC647B can be
perhaps the most humiliating and embarrassing ordeal one can face. Our
Law Firm can help ensure the arrest does not lead to a conviction in Court.   
What most people do not understand is that an arrest for these offenses
involve special investigators, detectives and prosecutors.  When an arrest is
made the District Attorney or City prosecutor may charge those involved with
solicitation, loitering and other crimes associated with the acquisition of sex
or sexual acts for money.  Attorney Matthew Ruff attorney understands the
implications a conviction will have on a person's future and can find a way to
get criminal charges dropped in these cases.

For over 15 years we have been providing aggressive representation for any
prostitution arrest including PC647(b), loitering with the intent to engage in an
act of prostitution or any other serious criminal offense.  In most cases our
attorney can go to Court for you.  Contact us for a no nonsense explanation of
the law that deals with your case and what options you have to fight the
charges.

The crime of solicitation of prostitution is codified in the
Penal Code in
section 647(b), the law is described as follows:

"Anyone who solicits or who agrees to engage in or who engages in any act
of prostitution is guilty of a crime.  A person agrees to engage in an act of
prostitution when, with specific intent to so engage, he or she manifests an
acceptance of an offer or solicitation to so engage, regardless of whether the
offer or solicitation was made by a person who also possessed the specific
intent to engage in prostitution. No agreement to engage in an act of
prostitution shall constitute a violation of this subdivision unless some act, in
addition to the agreement, is done within this state in furtherance of the
commission of an act of prostitution by the person agreeing to engage in that
act. As used in this subdivision, “prostitution” includes any lewd act between
persons for money or other consideration."

Whereas the crime of loitering for prostitution,
Penal Code 653.22 is
evidenced by someone who "repeatedly beckons to, stops, engages in
conversations with or other conduct which indicates solicitation for
prostitution.

The city of Long Beach LBPD and the municipality of Los Angeles LAPD
aggressively enforces and prosecutes the crime of prostitution and the
solicitation thereof.  The offense is usually initiated by the police as part of
some sting operation commenced to catch and arrest those suspected of
committing the offense.  In many instances, innocent passersby can be lured
in to the sting operation and find themselves being wrongfully accused of the
act of soliciting a prostitute.
