What to Do After an Accusation
An accusation of sexual assault or rape is extremely serious. It is common for police officers to attempt to get an admission of guilt, but it is imperative not to speak to the police about the allegation. If you are arrested, don’t make a statement to the police, answer questions, or even discuss the allegation over the phone from jail before contacting an experienced criminal defense attorney.
Building an Effective Defense
Mounting a strong defense is essential if you have been accused of rape or sexual assault. We can thoroughly investigate your case, interview potential witnesses, gather evidence, and work to build a defense that confirms your version of the events.
