Sexual Offences

This has to be one of the toughest  areas of criminal allegations to defend. A huge area ranging from possession of illegal pornography, paedophile offences, date rape / stranger rape, (historic) sexual abuse – it is a field in which current government policy means that weak allegations (often the complainant’s sole word against the defendant) are being prosecuted by specialist dedicated teams of police and investigators to the devastation of the defendants and their families. Careers are finished, marriages and relationships  break down  before and during trial because of the stress on all involved.

If you are facing such an allegation you will need mature,  first class specialist sex crimes defence lawyers providing legal advice, skills, representation and support. These cases require careful, thorough investigation and preparation. You will need lawyers who are pro-active,  tenancious and discreet, and whom are as equally experienced as the prosecuting teams that you are facing.

One of our team defends these cases on a private basis only and works closely with Stephen Cooper, a renowned and specialist enquiry agent, to great success. We will use only the best specialist barristers and experts that the funding of the case will allow. Please note that this area has been especially badly hit as a result of government cutbacks on Legal Aid funding.

Additionally, post conviction orders such as the Sex Offenders Register, orders preventing communication/working with young people, need careful advice and navigating.
