Attorneys Defending Child Sexual Molestation Cases
Over half of molestation-abuse accusations are false, yet this crime has the highest conviction rate of any felony charge. An accusation of child molestation can start in a custody battle and lead to juvenile and criminal cases. An anonymous accusation of abuse can lead to the removal of your children, to criminal charges, to separation from your spouse, and ultimately a prison sentence.
Your best defense is to understand the system you face and have the most experienced legal representation possible. At the law offices of the Innocence Legal Team, we have been protecting the rights of individuals throughout California facing false accusations of child sexual molestation for over thirty years.

It is very easy to be falsely accused of child abuse or lewd acts on a child, but it is exceptionally difficult to be exonerated in court. Even though 50-60% of molestation or abuse charges are false, more of these trials end in the wrongful conviction of the innocent than any other type of criminal case. With widespread media attention often causing a state of hysteria, this highly emotional charge tends to destroy the ability of the system to handle such cases objectively.
How Can You Win?
One charge of child sexual molestation or abuse can send a parent, professional or any adult to prison from eight years to life. Due to mandatory sentencing, many innocent people are now serving long prison sentences. If you are accused of child molestation or abuse, it is critical that you understand what you face in this type of case and what you must do to protect your freedom, your reputation, and your family.
With over three decades of experience handling these cases, we have the knowledge, experience, and network of resources necessary to build a comprehensive criminal defense. We will use the following tactics to protect your rights:
- Brief Banks: Case law dealing with molestation and abuse is complex. For that reason, our firm has extensive summaries of law on all important issues that arise in these cases. We call these summaries "brief banks,"
- Investigators: Our investigators are carefully trained in defense tactics and theories so they can gather relevant information that others often overlook. Even before being formally charged, a professional investigator can provide the information needed to dissuade the prosecution from pursuing a frivolous case or to have the case dismissed before going to a full-blown trial.
- Expert Witnesses: Because our network of experts keeps us up to date with all the physiological, psychological, and medical issues concerning sex offenses, we are able to use the latest studies available in presenting your case to the jury.
