Possible Defenses To Sex Crime Allegations
Facing sexual assault charges or other accusations is frightening. But just because you’ve been accused doesn’t mean you’re guilty.
Mr. Hames will scour the prosecution’s case to devise an appropriate defense, which could include:
- Proof that you were not present when the crime occurred
- Challenging the accuracy and credibility of witnesses
- Providing DNA or other physical evidence excluding you as the perpetrator
- Establishing that the person accusing you gave their consent
- Uncovering lies or motivations leading to false accusations
Mr. Hames leverages his extensive experience and legal knowledge to develop compelling strategies aimed at dismissing or reducing charges, securing acquittals or minimizing penalties.
