Benton Rape, Statutory Rape and Sexual Assault Defense Attorneys
Criminal cases involving allegations of rape, statutory rape, sexual assault and other forms of criminal sexual misconduct are unlike other criminal cases. The mere allegation of a sex crime could cost you your job, your community standing and even your family. If convicted of a sex crime, you could be sentenced to serve a significant term of imprisonment, register as a sex offender and face other significant impairment to your freedom and personal liberty.
The state aggressively prosecutes sex crimes charges and has considerable resources at its disposal. Alleged victims are sympathetic witnesses and often have considerable credibility in the eyes of a jury. In some cases, the law precludes defendants from raising defenses that they may feel warranted or preclude defendants from introducing evidence that might challenge the credibility of the alleged victim.
With the power of the state against you, you will need an advocate — someone who will fight for you and protect your rights. You need a skilled and aggressive criminal defense lawyer who is committed to raising a strong defense on your behalf.
