We have extensive experience handling sex crimes from both a prosecution and a defense point of view. If you are under investigation for a sex crime, one of the most important things you can do is to talk to a lawyer before you talk to police. In almost 70 percent of the cases we have handled, our clients confessed to the sex crime after being confronted by an officer. However, without a confession, the state may be less likely to be able to prove its case.
In addition to the other material we have on the site, experience in defending these cases is especially important since allegations in these cases are often untrue or exaggerated. Many involve the use of alcohol or drugs related to the charges and expert medical witnesses can often be helpful in these cases with whom we are familiar and often worked with on other cases. Conviction in these cases often involves exposure to long jail or prison sentences as well as long periods and even lifetime periods of sex offender registration. It is very important to have experienced counsel in these cases.
Our primary goal in a sex crime case is to look for a winning defense, allowing you to be found not guilty or have charges dismissed. Secondly, we take proactive steps, such as enrolling you in a treatment program that can help minimize consequences if you are found guilty.
