Sexual Offences

​

Arguably the most sensitive and emotive of allegations, they can often arise suddenly with massive implications to the accused from the point of arrest.

These types of offences are clearly the most delicate of matters.  We have an experienced team of lawyers able to help with all types of allegations in a sensitive and appropriate way.

​

We can help with cases where consent is the issue.

Matters that arise when relationships go wrong, or one-night stands when both people have different views as to what happened the next day.

We also represent people that have been arrested because of material found on their computers. We are able to help you understand how the police obtain their evidence and how this affects the person arrested.

​

These matters are often very difficult to deal with for the person arrested, and we understand the need to deal with these matters sensitively and realistically.

Sometimes allegations arise from within the family causing division and chaos. We can provide advice and perspective to people that find themselves facing the Court process following these allegations.

​

We have significant experience of dealing with historical cases, when people make complaints about things they say happened a long time ago. These cases require clarity, objectivity, sometimes a lot of research and so experience in dealing with these matters is invaluable. Often, because of the delay the people accused of these offences are older and may not be in the best of health physically or mentally. Sometimes these clients need extra support from doctors or intermediaries to help them get through the Court process.

 

Because we deal with a these cases regularly, we are able to help you with the preparation of your case and also help you prepare for your trial, accessing the appropriate help at the right time.
