HELP YOU NEED
At KN Trial Attorneys Law Firm, we never try to provide one-size-fits-all defense arguments, especially in cases involving serious sex crimes. Instead, we will carefully review the evidence in your case to develop a personalized defense strategy tailored to your specific circumstances and goals for the resolution of your case.
We are extremely familiar with the rules of evidence and the important role that forensic analysis of hair, fibers, DNA, and other evidence can play in sex crimes cases. We will know how to challenge these types of evidence, and ideally we will be able to show that there is insufficient evidence to convict you. Alternatively, we might be able to argue that you actually did have the consent of the alleged victim at the time of the sex act. Even if the evidence against you is strong, we can still help by negotiating a plea deal for you. This will help secure a more lenient penalty. Often, we are also able to secure a reduced charge that may not even carry sex offender registration requirements.
