Types of Sex Crime Charges

Rape and Sexual Assault Defense

I handle complex rape and sexual assault cases. In these types of cases, I investigate consent issues and examine witness credibility. Then, I scrutinize forensic evidence such as DNA. These steps help me build a strong defense for positive outcomes for my clients.

Rape is a felony and is classified into three different degrees of severity.

• First degree: non-consensual sex with a victim under the age of 13, or rape that includes threats of violence, forcible compulsion, or inability to consent due to physical helplessness. 

• Second degree: Non-consensual sex with a victim under the age of 15, or, engaging in a sex act with an individual who is incapable of consent due to mental disability
• Third degree: Non-consensual sex with a victim under the age of 17, or “without such person’s consent where such lack of consent is by reason of some factor other than incapacity to consent.”  

Indecent Exposure and Public Sexual Misconduct

Furthermore, I defend clients against indecent exposure and related public misconduct charges. Often, these cases rely on questionable identifications or circumstances. I can successfully challenge them and achieve positive results.

Solicitation of a Sex Worker

I also provide aggressive defense for solicitation of a sex worker and similar charges. I focus on minimizing penalties and protecting your record from long-term damage.

Child Pornography and Digital Sex Crime Allegations

I defend individuals accused of possession or distribution of child pornography and other internet-based sex offenses. Specifically, these cases require meticulous technical and legal scrutiny. As an experienced lawyer, l have handled hundred of cases related to these types of sex crime. I can help you.

Strong Defense Strategies for Sex Crime Cases. Challenging Evidence and Witness Testimony

Many times, sex crime cases depend on inconsistent statements or unreliable evidence. I conduct detailed investigations to uncover weaknesses. This step is crucial to create reasonable doubt.

Fighting Unlawful Searches and Digital Forensics Issues

I challenge illegal searches, device seizures, and forensic analysis. In fact, prosecutors often rely on these elements in digital sex crime cases.

Negotiating Favorable Outcomes

Notably, not every case goes to trial. I know exactly when to negotiate. Often, I secure reduced charges, dismissals, or alternatives that avoid sex offender registration.
