Molestation is one of the most emotionally devastating charges that can be made against a person. The mere accusation of this crime can seriously damage your reputation, career and personal relationships.

Molestation, also known as Child Molestation and Indecent Liberties, generally involves any type of sexual contact with a person under the age of 14 (though this age varies from state to state). It is related to the lesser but still serious charge of Statutory Rape.

If convicted, you can face a lifetime registration as a sex offender and severe criminal penalties. A sex crime conviction can follow you for the rest of your life, and convictions can occur even when the only evidence is the victim's word.

Molestation charges are especially difficult because there is a strong inclination among judges, juries and peers to believe children. However, children are highly impressionable and can be easily manipulated by prosecutors and family members. Children have been known to make outlandish statements, and it is difficult to differentiate induced testimony from reality.

To make matters worse, you can be convicted of child molestation without the testimony of the child in some cases. A casual comment made by a child in school can result in the school officials being legally required to report you as a potential child molester. Early and aggressive representation by a defense attorney with a proven track record in child molestatation defense can turn the tide in your direction and sometimes avoid a very painful and expensive trial process.

Sex crime charges are generally "he said, she said" cases in which the jury must decide between the word of the victim and that of the defendant. In the area of child molestation defense, there is often extensive use of psychologists, character witnesses and very extensive private investigation.

Sexual defense is different from other areas of criminal law and requires very specific techniques and experience. An effective defense team often employs psychologists, computer forensic examiners, private investigators and an attorney with the expertise to use these tools in the most effective manner.
