Walnut Creek Sex Crimes Attorney
Defending You Against Sex Crime Charges
The stigma surrounding sex crimes makes it especially difficult for those accused. Often, it can feel as if public opinion is against you before a trial has even taken place. At the Law Office of Thomas F. McKenna in Walnut Creek, California, every client I receive is treated fairly, with respect and understanding. I believe firmly that everyone is innocent until proven guilty; as such, you will receive the tireless support of a hard-working, non-judgmental and experienced attorney all the way through your case.
Understanding the Consequences of Sex Crime Convictions
Being charged with a sex crime can have serious and long-lasting consequences. It is crucial to understand the potential outcomes and the impact they can have on your life. At Law Office of Thomas F. McKenna, our experienced attorneys are dedicated to protecting your rights and helping you navigate through the legal process.
Here are some potential consequences of a sex crime conviction:
- Criminal Record: A sex crime conviction can result in a permanent criminal record, which can affect your employment prospects, housing opportunities, and personal relationships.
- Sex Offender Registration: Depending on the severity of the offense, you may be required to register as a sex offender. This can restrict where you can live, work, and even travel.
- Professional License Suspension: If you hold a professional license, such as a teacher or healthcare provider, a sex crime conviction can lead to the suspension or revocation of your license.
- Loss of Custody Rights: If you have children, a sex crime conviction can impact your custody and visitation rights, potentially leading to limited or supervised contact with your children.
- Social Stigma: Sex crimes carry a significant social stigma, which can result in isolation, strained relationships, and damage to your reputation.
It is important to remember that being charged with a sex crime does not automatically mean guilt. Our skilled attorneys will thoroughly investigate your case, challenge the evidence against you, and build a strong defense strategy tailored to your specific situation.
If an allegation of sexual misconduct has been made against you, it is essential that you do not talk to anyone about it — especially family members and friends. Protect yourself by calling my office immediately at (925) 744-8404.
