Due to the nature of sex crimes and sexual offenses, a person who has been accused of a sex crime of any kind is likely to face harsh prosecution and serious penalties under Oregon law.

Portland Sex Crime Case? You Need an Attorney

Laws regarding sex crimes and sex offender registration requirements are constantly changing and becoming all the more severe. Not only will you face criminal penalties for a sex crime conviction, but you may also face registration as a sex offender and thus the social stigma associated with this. Your personal and professional relationships are likely to suffer, as well as your ability to find work and obtain certain professional licenses.

Even if physical evidence is not prominent in your case, it is still possible that you will face sex crime charges and a conviction. Your lawyer will need to prove that the alleged victim made false allegations against you and that the crime did not occur, or that there is not enough evidence for a conviction. Without a skilled and experienced lawyer, this is almost impossible. That is why your Portland sex crime defense lawyer will play such a major role in the outcome of your case.
