    An allegation of any kind of sex crime is an extremely serious matter. Sexual assault charges could be filed for a range of actions, ranging from unwanted touching in the workplace to accusations of rape. If you are convicted of sexual assault, you will spend many years in prison, pay a heavy fine, and spend the rest of your life as a registered sex offender. Your opportunities will be lost, and you owe it to yourself to mount the strongest defense possible against the accusations.

    Defending against a sexual assault accusation can be very difficult, due to a natural bias for the alleged victim, even if the allegations are untrue. It takes real legal skill to protect you in court. You’ll need to be able to present evidence that supports the defense, including testimony from others who know you. Another option is to demonstrate that sexual contact did happen, but it does not qualify as sexual assault because consent was given at the time. The presence of consent can be difficult to prove after the fact, which is why the help of a criminal defense attorney with experience in sexual assault cases is so critical. It’s a sad fact that many women will claim sexual assault or rape after an act of consensual sex if they later experience regret, or simply to damage the reputation of the man involved. Don’t let this happen to you.
