Grooming

Indecent exposure

Indecent exposure, also sometimes referred to as ‘flashing’ is considered to be a sexual offence and therefore carries a range of potential punishments. If you are accused of indecent exposure, it is essential that you seek out specialist legal advice.

Our team can provide a robust defence against allegations of indecent exposure to ensure that a positive outcome for your case can be achieved.

Outraging public decency

Public acts which are considered to be lewd or obscene as judged by a jury in a ‘contemporary society’ may be considered to be outraging public decency. The sentencing threshold for outraging public decency is higher than adjacent offences such as indecent exposure, which also means the corresponding sentences are also higher.

With significant experience in these offences, we can offer the legal support and representation that is required to secure an acquittal or reduced charges.
