Los Angeles Rape Defense Lawyer

Have you been criminally charged with rape?

Rape is legally defined as the forced sexual interaction between you and an unwilling partner. Due to the violence that this sex crime often incorporates as well as the long-term damages that the victim can suffer from, penalties that are associated with a conviction are often stiff and unyielding. Fueled by societal pressure, law enforcement, prosecutors and courts alike all work exhaustively to put these alleged criminals behind bars.

It doesn't matter if you are indeed innocent, you can be confident that in always every scenario, you will be viewed guilty by the other side. You will not be given the leisure of being considered innocent until proven otherwise - you will instead be fighting an uphill battle to prove your innocence. This is unfortunate as not every accusation of rape is founded in truth. In fact, there are many instances in which a jealous or spiteful ex-lover might accuse you of rape to get back at you or even, in some cases, to gain the upper hand in another lawsuit - such as one involving alimony. False accusations happen every day, but you cannot let your rights be violated for something of this nature.
