Sex crimes are among the most serious, severely punished offenses in all of Michigan criminal law, so you may be facing an uphill battle if you were arrested. Often, the facts and allegations stack up against you, leaving you seemingly helpless to defend them. Juries tend to favor the victim, but you still have important rights to protect. It is critical that you leverage all possible defense strategies to avoid harsh punishment. Many sex offenses are felonies, so a court could sentence you to years in prison.

When your situation looks grim, you can turn to David G. Moore, Attorney at Law, for solid, effective criminal defense services. An arrest does not equal a conviction, and there are numerous opportunities to get the charges dismissed and attack the prosecutor’s claims. Plus, you may have other options to resolve a sex offenses case. David will pursue all strategies to ensure the best possible outcome.

If you are facing charges, please contact David G. Moore, Attorney at Law, to speak to a Grand Rapids sex crimes lawyer who can provide personalized advice about your case.

Informed Decision-Making for

frequently asked questions

  • How does Michigan classify sex crimes?
    State law uses the terms Criminal Sexual Conduct (CSC) to describe different kinds of offenses that involve sexual contact, without the victim’s consent, and use of force, threats, or intimidation. The charges are more serious for children under 13 and 16 years old.
  • What are the penalties for a conviction?
    The lowest degree of sex crimes is still a high court misdemeanor, punishable by up to 2 years’ incarceration. Most CSC offenses are felonies, so the maximum sentence could be up to 20 years or even life imprisonment.
  • Are there other consequences if I was convicted of a sex crime?
    You will be required to register as a sex offender for a period of several years or the rest of your life. You will also have a conviction for a felony or misdemeanor on your criminal record.
  • Can I challenge the evidence in a Grand Rapids sex crimes case?
    You can dispute proof, testimony, and other information the government aims to use to convict you. The prosecutor is required to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, which may not be possible if you are able to get improper evidence tossed.
  • Do I have other defense opportunities?
    It may be possible to plea bargain, which is beneficial because you could lower the charges and reduce the penalties. Doing so may also reduce the time you need to register as a sex offender.
  • How can I choose the right attorney to defend against sex crimes allegations?
    Doing your homework is critical, so find out about courtroom experience, specifically sexual offenses. Make sure your Grand Rapids sex crimes attorney concentrates on criminal law, which means they have meticulous focus with these cases.
