Houston Child Sexual Abuse Lawyer

Houston Sexual Assault Against Children Lawyer

Call (832) 720-7255 to Talk to an Experienced Attorney

If you have been charged with a sex crime — whether or not you are guilty — you may be facing serious penalties. Public outcry based on misinformation can cause prosecutors to ignore the facts. The government faces strong public pressure to prosecute alleged sex offenders aggressively. Children can be easily manipulated into making false allegations because they are often eager to please or because they are too young to understand what they are relaying. In such a sensitive and complex situation, a skilled criminal defense lawyer is crucial to protect your rights and fight for a fair resolution.

Sex offense charges, particularly offenses against children, are serious allegations with serious consequences. If you are convicted of a sexual offense, in addition to a probable prison sentence for a substantial period of time, you may also be labeled, and required to register, as a sex offender for the rest of your life. In such cases, it’s important to consult an experienced Houston child molestation defense attorney who can help you with the legal representation and protect your rights.

Houston defense attorney Nicole DeBorde understands the consequences of a criminal conviction for sexual assault, and aggressively fights for your rights and defends you against the State’s allegations. Contact us online or call (832) 720-7255 to schedule a free initial consultation and case evaluation.
