Charged with Solicitation?
Being caught soliciting a prostitute carries a number of unfortunate consequences — even if you are not convicted. You might find your mug shot on the Internet. Your spouse or boss may find out about the charge.

Criminal Defense Charges
In Illinois, a first time offense of soliciting for a prostitute is a class A misdemeanor. I have been successful in keeping this off a person's record by arranging for a diversionary program called sex school. Another option is to plead guilty and if you stay out of trouble and pay a fine, you can later have the record of your arrest expunged.
A multiple offense, or an offense within 1,000 feet of a school can get the charge bumped up to a class 4 felony. Your car can be impounded if the solicitation was from your car. I have been able to obtain release of my clients' cars in cases such as these.
