The US justice system is based on the premise that individuals are innocent until proven guilty. However, when an arrest for a sex crime becomes public, individuals are usually subject to a trial by the public and assumed to be guilty from the start. You want a lawyer who understands the stigma associated with sex crimes, so you can take advantage of every opportunity to mitigate the damages in court and in public.
With extensive experience handling sex crimes and sexual abuse cases in the Hudson Valley, we understand that false allegations are common. In fact, there are as many, if not more false allegations in sex crimes cases. In the worst cases, false allegations of sexual abuse are used to gain an upper hand in divorce and child custody cases. We have the resources needed to handle these complex cases and demonstrate what actually happened.
In all sexual assault and sex crimes cases, we encourage the accused to contact us as soon as possible. Even if you are simply under investigation, there is a lot you can do at the pre charge stage to protect your rights. We will take swift actions to protect your rights if you have been charged with any of the following:
- Underage sex crimes
- Sexual assault
- Sexual abuse
- Rape
- Statutory rape
- Child pornography
Sex Offender Registration
If you are convicted of any type of sex offense, you will have to register as a sex offender. This stigma will haunt you the rest of your life, making it hard to find work or even seek higher education. Part of any sex crimes defense should include steps to minimize the impact and your length of time on the sex offender registry.
