Los Angeles Sex Crime Attorney
Fighting Sex Crime Accusations
Accusations of sexual misconduct can have far reaching consequences both during the case and after it has concluded. There is a social stigma attached to sex crime allegations that can often have an immediate impact on your personal and professional life. Before you have been given an opportunity to address the charges, a restraining order may be ordered to prevent you from having any further contact with the alleged victim. If the case involves a spouse or your child, you may be required to move from your home.

Sex Crime Penalties
Sex crimes include many different types of offenses, such as rape, sexual abuse, child pornography, prostitution and solicitation.
