We all want to protect children. We are often horrified by stories of child sexual abuse. As public awareness of this abuse increases, more and more reports of possible sexual abuse involving children are being made. Unfortunately, not all of them are true.
It is not uncommon for innocent people to be accused and criminally charged with child sex crimes. It can happen to anyone including parents, teachers, coaches, and clergy. Sometimes sexual abuse claims come out of a misunderstanding, or worse. Sometimes someone simply may be out to ruin you and your reputation. If you have been questioned by a family member, another adult, or someone from children services about improper contact with a child, you may be under investigation for a sex crime.
Your effective defense strategy against accusations of sexual abuse starts with talking to an experienced family law attorney. Your side of the story is an important piece of the puzzle. My experience with child sexual abuse cases gives me an understanding that not all allegations of sex abuse are based on facts. I’m on your side and know how to protect your rights and make sure children services, police, prosecutors and the judge will hear your side of the story, too. Contact me today.
