Unlike rape, it does not involve sexual penetration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This may include gestures, touching, forced kissing or any act of a sexual nature imposed on a person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the difference between sexual assault and rape?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The distinction depends on whether or not penetration occurs:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sexual assault: any unwanted sexual contact or act, without penetration<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rape: sexual assault aggravated by penetration (section 222-23 of the Criminal Code)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both offences are punishable by severe penalties, with aggravating circumstances applying where the victim is a minor, where there is an abuse of authority, where a weapon is used or threatened, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the consequences for someone who commits a sexual assault?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sentences vary depending on the seriousness of the offence:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Simple sexual assault: up to five years\u2019 imprisonment and a fine of \u20ac75,000<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Aggravating circumstances (minor, ascendant, multiple perpetrators, etc.): up to 10 years\u2019 imprisonment and a fine of \u20ac150,000<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rape: a crime punishable by 15 to 20 years\u2019 imprisonment, or even longer depending on the circumstances (e.g. where the victim is a minor, or where there are aggravating circumstances)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What should I do if I am the victim of a sexual assault in Paris?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In an emergency: contact the police (17) or the ambulance service (15)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To file a complaint: at a police station, at a gendarmerie station, or directly with the public prosecutor by post<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Seeking legal support: a sexual assault lawyer in Paris can help you file a complaint, gather evidence (medical certificates, witness statements, text messages, etc.) and bring a civil action<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Psychological support: specialist organisations can help you (ask your solicitor to refer you to the appropriate support services)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I file a complaint even a long time after the incident?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes. The limitation periods for sexual offences are relatively long:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"translation-block\"><strong>20 years<\/strong> from the date the offence was committed in the case of rape<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"translation-block\"><strong>30 years<\/strong> from the age of majority for rape committed against a minor<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"translation-block\"><strong>6 years<\/strong> for sexual assault<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"translation-block\"><strong>10 years<\/strong> from the age of majority for sexual assault on a minor over the age of 15<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"translation-block\"><strong>20 years<\/strong> from the age of majority for sexual assault on a child under the age of 15<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This means that a victim can file a complaint years later, even as an adult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the role of a solicitor in sexual assault cases?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A criminal lawyer is involved at every stage:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>For the victim: filing a complaint, bringing a civil action, support during interviews, cross-examination and the trial, and claiming compensation (CIVI, Guarantee Fund).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For the accused: defence during police custody, contesting the charges, preparation and defence during the trial<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their role is as much legal (building the defence) as it is human (listening, supporting and reassuring).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do you choose a solicitor specialising in sexual assault cases in Paris?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Choose an avocado:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>An expert in criminal law with extensive experience in sexual offence cases<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>With proven experience in working with victims and

close at hand if you\u2019re in the Paris region<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are my rights as a victim of sexual assault?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a victim, you can:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>File a complaint<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bringing a civil action to seek compensation (damages)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To receive compensation from the CIVI (Commission for the Compensation of Victims of Crime) and the Guarantee Fund, or the SARVI (Service for Assistance with Compensation for Victims of Crime)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Being protected (restraining orders, contact bans, etc.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the procedure for a sexual offence in Paris?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Investigation (police, interviews, medical and psychological assessments)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Investigation (formal charges if there is serious and consistent evidence)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hearing before the Magistrates\u2019 Court (misdemeanours) or trial before the Assize Court or Criminal Court (rape)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Judgement and possible conviction<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It is possible to appeal against the decision<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Compensation proceedings before the CIVI or SARVI \/ Sentence adjustment proceedings<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Throughout the process, your solicitor will be there to explain the procedure to you, prepare a strategy and effectively defend your interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What support is available to victims of sexual offences?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A victim of a sexual offence may:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>File a criminal complaint<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Claiming compensation through the CIVI<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Contact victim support organisations for psychological and social support<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Asserting one\u2019s rights in the civil courts (divorce, child custody where domestic violence is involved)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How should you prepare for a meeting with a solicitor specialising in sexual assault cases?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is advisable to gather:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>All documents and evidence relating to the assault (text messages, emails, medical certificates, photographs, witness statements)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A chronological account of the events, to help the lawyer
