With your best interests and your future always in mind, we will fight to limit the harm caused by a conviction.
Constructing the Strongest Possible Defense
Rape and statutory rape charges can be difficult for the prosecution to prove without the proper evidence and witness testimony. Even with witness testimony, your case can come down to a he said, she said argument. To help you mount the strongest defense possible, we often consult with experts, including:
- Private investigators
- Forensic experts
- Psychologists
By carefully examining the evidence against you with the help of these experts, we look to uncover evidence that can be used to contest the charges against you. Information gained during the investigation can also be vital in applying pressure on the prosecution to reduce or dismiss your charges or offer better plea terms.
Information that can be useful includes conflicting witness statements, contradictory or incomplete evidence, deviations from proper police procedure during their investigation and infringements upon your rights during or after your arrest.
Begin Mounting an Aggressive Defense Immediately
If you have been charged with rape or statutory rape, it is important to hire an attorney immediately, even from jail. By beginning to plan your defense immediately, you improve your chances of avoiding the severe penalties stemming from a conviction, including;
- Jail time
- Probation or parole
- Sex offender registration
Our staff accepts calls 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including collect calls from jail. Do not speak to police without a lawyer, and do not wait to get your defense started.
