Palo Alto Criminal Defense: Child Molestation Allegations
Palo Alto child molestation allegations attorney serving Cupertino, Los Gatos, Mountain View, Redwood City, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Saratoga & Sunnyvale
CHILD-SEX/CHILD MOLESTING CASES
As difficult as it may be for someone to be accused, I have years of experience in getting acceptable results for my clients in this situation.
Charged crimes in this area can be quite serious with significant state prison exposure. Attorneys not experienced in this field can unwittingly increase the degree of that exposure. For instance, in many situations, each act complained of, and for which the individual suffers conviction, could lead to full, separate and consecutive state prison sentences, lifetime registration as a sex offender, and other sanctions. However, the prosecution may not charge many of the acts complained of by the "victim." Unwitting exposure to these uncharged, but lurking, allegations could prove extremely damaging.
My experience in these matters gives me the ability to provide knowledgeable counsel and recommendations as to when to proceed in spite of this additional risk, and when to take advantage of the prosecution's failure to charge all allegations.
Also, I am aware that angry divorces often lead to these kinds of allegations. I have experience in dealing with that. The fact that one spouse charges the other with child molesting during these kinds of divorces, although not normal, is still not unusual. I work closely with family law attorneys to provide the best representation in these cases.
