Putting Sex Charges in Context
In light of the lessons we have learned from highly publicized cases such as the incident involving members of the lacrosse team at a prominent private university, sex crime charges are not always what they appear.
False accusations of stalking and sex crimes can arise in the context of contentious personal relationships. Issues of consent for sexual activity can be complicated by alcohol or drug use, or by misunderstandings.
If you have been charged with a sex crime, you not only face criminal penalties but you may also be required to register as a sex offender, which will follow you when you move into new neighborhoods.
You deserve a criminal defense lawyer who will listen to your side of the story and advocate effectively for you throughout all stages of the prosecution. At Clark & Associates, we are devoted to providing that level of service. Contact us to discuss how we can help you.
Your church, school, day care or other institution may be facing a lawsuit over alleged sex crimes by an employee or representative of your organization. In addition to our criminal defense work, we are also highly experienced at representation of organizations in civil lawsuits.
Scrutinizing Evidence Collected Online
The Internet is a place where it is not unusual to be unsure or skeptical about the identity of the people with whom you are interacting. The police will sometimes take advantage of this situation to use undercover agents to collect evidence of alleged crimes.
Determining whether this evidence can be admitted legally is a complex process, so if you are charged with an Internet sex crime, you will want an attorney with the analytical skill to argue vigorously on your behalf. At Clark & Associates, we understand the unique legal and evidentiary issues that apply to computer crimes.
