If you have been accused of committing a sex crime there are several initial steps that can be taken to mitigate your potential exposure in the Criminal Justice System. The State of Florida has a variety of statutes that encompass sexual offenses. Depending on the offender’s age, the victim’s age, and the alleged act, a person can be charged with a variety of offenses that range from 3rd Degree Felonies to Capital Offense.
If you are being accused of a sexual offense then early attorney involvement can be essential in your defense. Often times unsupported accusations can lead to severe charges filed against you, which even if they are eventually dismissed, can haunt you for the rest of your life. By hiring an Attorney at the “accusation stage” we can work with the State Attorneys Office and examine the credibility of the evidence against you and work towards the proper charge, if any, being filed against you.
