Seattle Rape Attorney - Bellevue Sexual Assault Defense

Criminal offenses involving unwanted sex acts such as aggravated sexual assault or rape are extremely serious. The consequences of a conviction can be devastating, even for first-time offenders. It's important that your sexual assault defense attorney be experienced and sensitive to the special considerations of violent sex crimes. Few crimes generate the kinds of emotional minefields you'll find in a violent sex case.

As an experienced Seattle sexual assault defense attorney, I know how to fight these charges. I have a special emphasis on sex crimes in my practice and have extensive experience investigating these cases and taking them to trial. I use some of the best experts in the scientific fields of DNA and toxicology (for drug-related date rape cases, for example) to demonstrate in dramatic fashion the factual impossibility of a false claim. If the alleged victim is lying, you need someone who knows how to do more than just rely on a "reasonable doubt" defense. You need someone who is going to fight the government's technology with better technology.

Understanding the Role of Technology

Modern criminal prosecutions are heavily dependent on technology like DNA typing in sexual assault cases. Detectives in a rape case will usually obtain a "rape kit" from a medical examination of the alleged victim, and this will contain compelling DNA evidence that must be completely understood. Police and prosecutors have vast technology resources at their disposal and they will use them against you. If you don’t have an effective technology counterpunch on your side, you’re not getting a complete defense.

My dual-discipline training as both a criminal defense lawyer and an engineer translates into a direct advantage for you, enabling me to understand and challenge forensic evidence on not just legal grounds, but also by demonstrating that the government's technology is flawed. I know more about this stuff than any prosecutor I've ever met, and they know it.

You Don't Want to Be a Registered Sex Offender

If convicted of sexual assault or rape, you may be required to register as a violent sex offender. Your name, picture and address may be posted on the Web and at public meetings held by police officers in your neighborhood. Registered sex offenders are often driven out of communities and branded for life, unable to get employment or housing. Don't let this happen to you.
