Rape

Rape is defined as non-consensual sexual intercourse with another person. Under this general definition are a multitude of distinctions. Rape charges can be easily brought by anyone by merely making the claim of non-consensual sex. Even sex consented to by both partners can be considered non-consensual such as when one of the partners is younger than the "age of consent."

Related crimes include:

• Date Rape
• Marital Rape
• Sexual Assault (also known as Attempted Rape)
• Statutory Rape (also known as Sexual Assault on a Minor)

When charged with a sex crime, the mere accusation of the crime can have a devastating effect on your life, including serious harm to your reputation, career and personal relationships. A sex crime conviction can follow you for the rest of your life. If convicted, you can face a lifetime registration as a sex offender and severe criminal penalties. Regardless of the severity or circumstances of your offense, your sex offender registration becomes public record, and your neighbors and employers will be able to see this identification indefinitely.

Defense!

Sex crime charges generally pit the word of the accused against the word of the victim. Physical evidence may be available immediately after the alleged act. This evidence can be used to your defense if you obtain an effective defense team immediately.

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

Rape charges are often "he said, she said" contests in which principle evidence is the word of the victim. The outcome of rape cases depends in large part on the attorneys involved and should be fought aggressively to avoid lifetime sex offender registration and harsh prison sentences.

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

One defense strategy is to deny that the alleged sexual act occurred in the first place or that the sexual act did not involve the defendant. DNA and other forensic evidence may be used to support this defense. Another strategy is to argue that the act was consensual. This requires skilled argumentation by your attorney and may depend strongly on the use of psychologists, character witnesses and expert private investigation services.
