When a charge of sexual assault is made it generally refers to a crime in which the offender subjects the victim to unwanted and offensive sexual contact. These crimes may include sexual harassment, groping, assault, assault and battery, simple battery or attempted rape. Sexual assault charges sometimes result in federal sexual abuse charges.
Severe sentencing guidelines as well as the requirement to register as a sex offender requires that you aggressively fight any sexually based crimes, including a charge of sexual assault. Like other sex crimes, there may be little or no physical evidence that ties you to the crime and the only witness to the crime is the accuser. Sexual assault charges may be made when there is not enough evidence of a more specific sexual crime and therefore careful pre-trial research may result in these charges being dropped avoiding a trial. If a trial becomes necessary, it is imperative that your legal team be well versed in the specific strategies that must be employed defending sexual assault charges.
If you or someone you know is facing potential sexual assault
charges, it is critical that you work with a defense team that
has specific experience and proven results in these types of cases.
