Exceptional Sex Crime Defense

As an experienced California sex abuse lawyer, I diligently defend and protect the constitutional rights of individuals facing charges for sex offenses. My firm employs one of the finest private investigators to complete a thorough investigation. I analyze what proof the prosecutor has and file motions to suppress evidence obtained by invalid search and seizure or by unlawful confession.

I do not judge my clients. I listen to my clients and work to minimize sentencing. I have a good working relationship with the district attorneys office, and I work with them to negotiate plea bargains or reduced charges for my clients.
