Sex Crimes Attorney

Sex Crimes

The sentencing ranges are as varied as the charges, from probation to mandatory state prison.  Each case must be evaluated independently to determine both the penalties involved and the possible alternatives. Only an experienced San Diego criminal defense attorney with a proven track record should be chosen to represent your case.

Very few allegations can damage your future as much as the charge of a sexual offense. Serious charges can be made by anyone regardless of physical evidence and are often pursued by overzealous prosecutors. Even false allegations of a sexual offense can seriously damage the rest of your life, including the ability to get a job, your reputation, your relationships and the ability to get along with your neighbors.

When you are accused of any sexually based crime, there is a natural tendency for everybody to consider you guilty regardless of the facts. I believe in your innocence and can be prepared to take your case to trial. Any sexual charge must be aggressively defended due to the fact that a conviction on almost any of these crimes will result in registration as a sex offender (usually for life), a felony conviction, mandatory AIDS testing, polygraph examinations and potential prison time.

The likelihood of any of these consequences depends on a number of factors including but not limited to: mitigating/aggravating circumstances, whether or not you’re currently on parole or probation, any prior convictions (specifically sexual convictions), the type of charge, the age and relationship to the “victim” and the quality of your legal representation.

If you, a family member, or a friend has been accused or charged with a sex crime, please do not hesitate to contact me immediately. In criminal matters, specifically sexual offenses, having experience and being proactive can be pivotal to the outcome of your case. I can help!
