The prosecutor has the discretion to determine whether he or she will charge you with a misdemeanor or felony offense. If your actions put a child at risk of great bodily harm, the prosecution will likely charge you with a felony offense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important to understand that your child does not have to suffer any actual injuries. The California Penal Code states that you may be found guilty of child endangerment if you willfully cause or permit a child to be placed in a situation where the child is endangered. For example, if you intentionally leave a child in a hot car for several hours unattended, you could be convicted of child endangerment even if the child suffers no injuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Defenses_to_a_Child_Endangerment_Charge_in_Los_Angeles\"><\/span>Defenses to a Child Endangerment Charge&nbsp;in Los Angeles<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As experienced&nbsp;Los Angeles child endangerment&nbsp;lawyers, there are many ways by which we can raise a strong defense on your behalf. If you want to fight your charges at trial, we have the trial experience to provide a vigorous defense on your behalf in the courtroom. The prosecution must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you acted willfully (with intent) or permitted a child to be placed in danger. Moreover, the danger must entail a risk of great bodily harm.&nbsp;Our attorneys&nbsp;will hold the prosecution to its burden of proof.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Minimizing_Penalties_and_Consequences\"><\/span>Minimizing Penalties and Consequences<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If the prosecution has a strong case and you do not want to fight your charges at trial, there are many ways we can help you minimize the penalties and adverse consequences arising from your charges. Depending on the facts of your case, we may be able to obtain a plea agreement that will help you avoid a criminal conviction, plead guilty to a lesser offense, or reduce the penalties you would otherwise face if convicted at trial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our Los Angeles attorneys&nbsp;improve our clients\u2019 odds of obtaining a favorable plea in two primary ways. First, we demonstrate to the prosecution that we are ready to raise a strong defense at trial if necessary to protect our clients\u2019 rights. Second, we encourage our clients to take advantage of parenting classes, drug or alcohol treatment, counseling services, and other measures that demonstrate they take their charges seriously and are willing to take proactive measures to prevent future situations that may impact a child\u2019s safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To schedule a free consultation with one of our Los Angeles child endangerment attorneys, call&nbsp;<strong>(310) 557-1700<\/strong>&nbsp;or contact us by&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/perlmancohen.com\/contact\/\">e-mail<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you been arrested for child endangerment?
