Penalties for Stalking in Virginia
The act of stalking is defined as a repetition of contact directed at an individual, which places him or her in reasonable fear of bodily injury, criminal sexual assault, or death. It is considered a Class 1 misdemeanor, punishable by a maximum jail sentence of one year and a fine of up to $2,500. Additionally, you will receive a civil protective order (restraining order) issued against you.
If you are convicted of a second offense of stalking within the previous five years with the same victim and is convicted of violating a protective order, it can become a Class 6 felony offense. A Class 6 felony is punishable by a maximum prison sentence of five years.

Attorney Michael Piluso did an excellent job advising me and representing me in my traffic case, and it was always easy to contact the office and schedule meetings with him. Mr. Piluso was able to give me realistic expectations and advice on what to do. I also greatly appreciated the payment options for retaining his services. I highly recommend Mr. Piluso and these law offices.
