San Antonio Sexual Assault Lawyer
Sexual-related criminal offenses in Texas can carry immediate and severe long-term consequences. Sex offenses carry a stigma that can be experienced even if you are merely subject to a false allegation. In addition to possible prison sentences, convicted offenders can also be required to register as sex offenders and face a lifetime of hardship when it comes obtaining employment, housing, or professional licenses. Many alleged sex offenses are the product of disgruntled former spouses or other intimate partners seeking to gain an advantage in a child custody case or divorce. Criminal charges in sexual offense cases are often based solely on the claims of alleged victims, which may be exaggerated or completely manufactured. People accused of crimes, who know they are innocent believe that there is no harm in telling authorities their versions of events, but law enforcement is trained to trick and twist what you tell them. It is a huge mistake to make any kind of statement without legal representation.
