5-Star Sex Offense Defense Lawyers
“I was wrongfully accused of sexually abusing a co-worker and was charged with multiple felony sex crimes. I hired Craig as my attorney and he started working on my case immediately. After diligent investigation and review of over 4000 pages of evidence, Craig was able to discover that the allegations against me were completely false and he got my case dismissed. I never even had to go to trial. If I had been convicted of the charges, I’d be spending 20+ years in prison. Craig saved my life!”

Frequently Asked Questions
If I get convicted, will I have to go to prison?
Not necessarily. Although many sex crimes require a mandatory prison sentence, most cases will be resolved through negotiations with the state. Often, topics such as prison time or sex offender registration requirements can be worked out in an agreement.
Will I have to register as a sex offender?
If you are convicted, most sex crimes do require sex offender registration. However, some offenses do not require any sort of registration at all. In some cases, it is possible to negotiate an agreement that will not require sex offender registration — even in cases that involve a guilty plea.
Can I be found guilty even when the only evidence is ‘he-said-she-said’?
Yes, you certainly can. Many criminal defendants have been convicted when the only evidence was testimonial. The state must prove their case beyond a reasonable doubt, but if a witness is found credible by a judge or jury, the witness’s testimony alone can be enough to convict.
