A: It would depend on the category of gross sexual assault that is charged and convicted on. In general, this is a very serious charge that often carries a long prison term, with some forms of gross sexual assault carrying prison terms of 20 years or more. A gross sexual assault conviction will also require registering on the sex offender registry. These charges can be defended against to avoid a conviction and my office has a high success rate on these cases at trial. If you would like to discuss further please contact my office.
