Statutory Rape

We talk to a lot of parents of 18 year-olds who are being charged with statutory rape for having sex with their teenage girlfriends. Statutory rape is a second degree felony. Because he (or she) is a senior going out with a freshman, the older teenager could face up to 15 years in prison. After release, he or she would be forced to register for life as a sex offender in accordance with the Jessica Lunsford Act.

The mere accusation alleging a sexual offense can substantially ruin an individual's personal and professional life. This is why we fight so hard to make sure that the judge, jury, and prosecution hear your side of the story.

Falsely Accused

Likewise, although people may assume that the accused is guilty merely because he was accused, we vehemently disagree. Sadly, some spouses will pressure their children into saying that they were molested when they were not. If this describes your circumstances, we can help. Call our offices for more details.
