A Robust Defense For Violent Crime Allegations
A violent crime occurs when a person intentionally threatens, attempts, or actually inflicts physical harm on another. The degree of the charges and the potential punishment for convictions depend on several factors, including the seriousness of the injuries, whether or not guns or other weapons were used, whether the accused has previous felony convictions and for the sex crimes the age of the purported victim.
These crimes require an aggressive defense by an experienced trial lawyer. You generally only get one chance to defend yourself from such a charge, and the consequences will dramatically affect the rest of your life. If your case can be resolved favorably, such as lesser charges or no prison time, Desmond Kolke’s straightforward approach often achieves wonderful results. But when negotiation is not an option, his courtroom experience is priceless. He will highlight the key facts, expose the weak points of the government’s case and present a vigorous defense to the judge or jury.
No Margin Of Error For Sex Crimes
There is no accusation more damaging than that of being labeled a sex offender. No matter what your profession or income level; no matter whether you are a minister, a teacher, an engineer, a drywaller, or a software developer; when you are accused of a sex offense, the court of public opinion will treat you as guilty even without any evidence to support their opinion.
If you are suspected of a sex offense, contact our criminal defense attorney immediately. Do not wait to be charged. Do not try to explain the situation to your family members, friends, or your employer. Many individuals that you may believe you can confide in are required by law to report suspected instances of a sex crime. If you are charged with, or even under investigation for a sex crime, you risk possible prison time and the burden of lifetime sex offender registration.
