Professional Counsel in the Defense of Rape Charges

We defend people charged with any count of rape, including

  • statutory rape.
  • marital or spousal rape.
  • date rape.

Because of our experience, we know that the critical issues in a rape case often center around the relationship between the parties, including whether or not the sexual contact was consensual. Physical evidence often plays a pivotal role as well.

We will carefully examine the physical evidence and will work with investigators and experts to determine whether the evidence was properly gathered, evaluated and protected. If crucial evidence has been tampered with or if the chain of custody cannot be established, we will seek the exclusion of the evidence and the dismissal of charges.

We also take the time to carefully analyze the testimony of all parties involved, particularly the alleged victim, to determine if there are inconsistencies in the testimony or ways that the credibility of your accusers can be brought into question.
