Have you been arrested and charged with a sex crime in Indiana? Defending against rape or sexual battery charges requires a trusting relationship between the attorney and client.

Indiana Code Section 35-42-4 designates certain crimes as “sex offenses.” These crimes carry some of the most devastating penalties under Indiana law. In addition to lengthy prison sentences, those convicted of committing a sex crime must often contend with the indignity and life-altering consequences of a lifetime of registration. Indeed, just being accused can deal a heavy blow to your reputation at work, in school, and community. There is a definite need for a competent criminal defense attorney with experience handling sex offense charges.
There are innocent people who can easily become accused of committing sex crimes. If you are charged, tried and convicted of even a minor sex crime, your name could be placed on the sex offender registry for years. Call The Law Offices of Jesse K. Sanchez, at (317) 721-9858 today
If You are Accused Of Sexual Offenses You Need an Attorney
You need to do two things if you’ve been accused. First, it is essential that you find an attorney you trust and are comfortable with. You are about to place your life in his or her hands. If you and and your attorney can’t speak openly and honestly with each other then you’re putting yourself at a disadvantage. Secondly, you need to find an attorney who will hold the State’s feet to the fire. Being convicted of a sex crime makes you a sex offender. In most states a conviction requires lifetime registration, restrictions in areas where you are allowed to travel and several other highly restrictive requirements. The various types of sex offenses include:
- Sexual Conduct with a Minor
- Rape
- Aggravated Rape
- Sexual Assault
- Sexual Assault of a Spouse
- Lewd and Lascivious Act
- Continuous Sexual Abuse of a Child
Not all of these sexually based crimes of course are equal, and many of the crimes carry state and federal “registration” requirements which can destroy a your ability to live a normal life. To get started on your defense contact the Law Offices of Jesse K. Sanchez at (317) 721-9858.
