Upon conviction, you might even have to pay a hefty sum in restitution to your accuser.

That is why you need the help of an experienced sex crime attorney from The Law Office of Jason Knight.

You Should Trust in Our Providence Sex Crime Attorney

When the stakes are as high as they are in a sex crime case, you have to go all-in with a defense attorney you know you can trust. Working with an impersonal, probably-exhausted public defender is too much of a gamble.

While the details of many sex crime cases will vary depending on the circumstances, there are two things that remain true about each one. Firstly, we need to thoroughly investigate the evidence, testimonies, and personal histories of everyone involved. This investigation frequently reveals that accusations are based on exaggerations, misunderstandings, or falsified reports. Secondly, our law firm knows how to handle it with professionalism and aggressive defense strategies.
