The Challenges Of Sex Offenses

Sex Crimes Are Complex; They Require an Experienced Attorney

Perhaps more than any other type of offense, sex crimes demand a lawyer with sensitivity and experience to fight in court. The challenges presented by sex crimes are unique, and our lead attorney at The Law Offices of J. Darren Byers, P.A., has the experience in both North Carolina and federal courts needed to build a strong defense.

What You Can Expect

It is important to understand that, when facing a charge for any form of a sex crime, the norms of crafting your defensive strategy change. When it comes to arguing sex crimes, there are a few things you should know:

  • Sex crimes, especially those involving children, become very complex, very quickly. With high emotions, the difficulty of working with witnesses who are underage, and crimes that may have little evidence, the legal waters can become incredibly muddy.
  • Crimes involving sex or children are emotional, and they can generate a public response. Frequently, those facing charges in these cases are under the threat of sentences that could be even longer than if they were facing murder charges.
  • In child pornography cases, especially cases involving the use of the internet, images may be transported across state lines. If that happens, it becomes a federal case, and the entire weight of the U.S. government is brought to bear against the accused.

It is no wonder, considering everything else, that sex crimes are some of the most stressful charges you can face. Stress like this can impact your health, your work and your relationships. The worries that stack up while you consider the future are nearly impossible to calculate. We have helped clients facing many different types of sex charges.
