Honolulu Sex Crimes Attorney

Being accused of a sex crime can be very embarrassing and stressful.  These crimes are serious and are often prosecuted very aggressively.  Being convicted of a sex crime can have major life-altering consequences.  These consequences can include lengthy prison time, lifetime sex offender registration, hefty fines, as well as the stigma of being a convicted sex offender.  This could prevent you from gaining employment, renting an apartment, and many other things you previously took for granted.

Sex crimes can be complex and often involve DNA evidence such as blood, saliva, and hair samples.  It is important that these samples are properly collected and stored.  But in many cases police may not properly preserve this evidence while collecting it.  Improperly handled or tainted evidence can adversely affect the outcome of a case.

 

Sex crimes can include:

  • Rape
  • Date rape
  • Statutory rape
  • Sexual assault
  • Indecent exposure
  • Child molestation
  • Internet solicitation of minors
  • Sexual abuse
  • Internet sex crimes
  • Sex trafficking
  • Prostitution

They communicated with me consistently and the case was resolved without costing a fortune. The lawyers and their staff are friendly and I genuinely enjoyed every communication with them. If I ever need legal representation again, they are the only law firm I would want representing me. Many thanks everyone at Attorneys For Freedom! Keep up the great work you do!
