False or Fake Allegations Of Sexual Assault Next Steps

By Sills DUI & Criminal Defense Lawyers | January 24, 2018

Share

Accusations of sexual assault are serious and should not be ignored. In the state of Connecticut, sexual assault is punishable by lengthy prison sentences, harsh fines, and registration as a sex offender. Thus, if you have been in a situation where you think a fake sexual assault charge may be made, or you have already been accused of sexual assault, it is important to take action to defend your innocence.

Here’s What You Should Do If You Have Been Falsely Accused of Sexual Assault

1. Exercise Your Rights

If you are arrested and accused of sexual assault, you have the right to remain silent, and to hire a sex crimes attorney. Anything you say may be used against you in court, and a slip of the tongue may hurt your case. That is why you should not try to explain what happened or talk your way out of it, but stay silent until you have spoken with a lawyer.

2. Hire Legal Representation

Sexual assault allegations can lead to severe and life-altering penalties. If you have been accused of sexual assault in Connecticut, it is important to hire experienced legal counsel as soon as possible. Our firm has guided numerous clients to successful legal outcomes. We have a thorough knowledge of federal and state laws regarding sex crimes, and will diligently uphold your rights in court.

3. Gather Evidence to Support Your Innocence

If you think you may be accused of sexual assault, you should gather evidence of the alleged incident. This may involve witness statements, pictures or videos of the scene, written communication between you and the plaintiff, and other documentation to support your innocence. This step is important for building a solid defense in court against the charges.
