Contact the law office of Michael T. Norris and John W. Callahan today if you are facing a criminal sexual charge.  Understanding what you are up against and the defenses available to you are crucial for maintaining your rights throughout your case.

Gathering All the Facts

We are all familiar with news stories involving rejection, spurned lovers, jealousy, vindictive co-workers, unstable students, or blackmail.  False sexual charges are not unusual and challenging witnesses, testimony, and evidence is crucial.  The attorneys at the law office of Michael T. Norris and John W. Callahan challenge the prosecutor to consider all the facts.  In defending your case we will:

  • Gather evidence in support of your defense
  • Demand a psychological evaluation of the accuser
  • Determine if the accuser suffers from false memories or fantasies
  • Introduce supporting medical evidence or expert psychological opinion
  • Suggest possible motives the accuser might have for making their accusations

All of these defense measures require time and preparation.  If you haven’t contacted a criminal defense attorney yet, contact our offices immediately so that we can start the processes necessary for constructing your defense.

  • Rape

Avoid Complications – Hire an Attorney Immediately

Certain sexual offenses can be charged as either a felony or misdemeanor offenses, depending on the prosecutor’s judgment.

If hired early in the process, your sexual offense defense attorney can contact the prosecution and negotiate to reduce or minimize the charges against you.  

Since many sexual offenses do not involve witnesses, it is vital that you start sorting through the evidence and allegations leveled against you.  As criminal defense attorneys, Michael T. Norris and John W. Callahan have extensive experience investigating allegations, interviewing witnesses, and filing discovery motions on your behalf. We are familiar with police and prosecution strategies and can identify weaknesses important for your defense.

Remember, the stigma of a sexual offense charge can follow you even after you’ve been found not guilty or charges have been dropped.  Don’t make matters worse by delaying your defense.  The prosecution has investigators, experts, lab technicians, and monetary resources to put you behind bars.  If they’ve arrested you … it’s a pretty good indication they believe you committed a crime.
