I have worked closely with Mr. Wood in the DA's Office for 20 years. During that time, I watched him in court, I round tabled cases with him, I saw him successfully prosecute the most difficult cases, I saw him obtain great results in settling cases. We asked each other for advice. He was always helping other lawyers in the office. He is an expert in his field.

Legal Answers
1 Questions Answered
Q. Can I date my gf after I turn 18?
A: There is no prohibition to continuing in a non-sexual relationship with your girlfriend. However, if you intend to engage in a sexual relationship, that may be an issue. California Penal Code section 261.5 says it is a crime to have sex if one party is over 18, while the other is 17 or under. The law considers a person under 18 to not have the ability to 'consent' to a sexual relationship. If you do engage in a sexual relationship, given your ages, you would only be charged with a misdemeanor, if charged at all.
