“What’s the worst that can happen” is not a question you may wish to contemplate if you have been accused of a serious sexual offence. Being accused of sexual offences can have a major impact upon both you and your loved ones. You may lose your job, reputation and, at worst, your freedom if you are found guilty of a crime of this nature. Therefore, it is essential that you have expert representation to reduce the risk of being unfairly convicted.

At ABV Solicitors, we are renowned by The Legal 500 for having a strong track record in dealing with sexual offences. You can feel confident that by seeking the support of our sexual offence solicitor, you are getting the expertise, experience and discreet service you need when you need it most.

What we do

If you aren’t familiar with the areas of law covered under the term “sexual offence”, then it can help to clarify what we mean by this. Sexual offences can include issues such as rape, sexual assault, sexual grooming, sexual exploitation, historical sexual allegations, indecent images, and child abuse. While you may only be accused of a single area of sexual offences, we are also experienced in defending multiple accusations for a defendant.

How we can help

If you are being taken to the police station for questioning and no charges have been brought against you, it is highly advisable to seek our support at this earliest stage. We will be able to ensure that all procedures are followed correctly and help you answer any questions in the most appropriate way. Our intervention at this stage could make the difference between whether or not any charges are brought against you. It doesn’t matter if you need us in the middle of the night, either; we are available 24-7 to assist at police stations, wherever you are in the UK. We deal with cases nationwide, so you can feel reassured that we will be there for you.

During the initial telephone call, our sexual offence solicitor will be able to explain the legal implications of whatever is happening to you and present the options for moving forward through the legal process. Our sexual offence solicitor will aim to put your mind at ease during this conversation so that you won’t need to worry about the unknown and can feel reassured that whatever happens, it will be dealt with by your legal team here at ABV Solicitors.

Going to court

If charges are brought against you, we will work proactively to build a robust defence case for you. We will collate evidence, interview witnesses and make use of our access to expert witnesses from the forensic and medical fields. You will be represented by leading QCs and barristers whom we work with, and we will continue to provide the relevant information they require during your trial.
