Hire Our Long Branch, New Jersey, Law Firm
Accusations involving sex crimes can shatter a person's life. And if the accusations are followed by a conviction, it becomes almost impossible to pick up the broken pieces.
Sex crimes convictions carry long-term consequences above and beyond a ruined reputation and jail time. Convicted sex offenders must register with a public database called the sex offenders' registry. Any member of the public can access this database, which includes personal details about the convict and the crime. Furthermore, most New Jersey cities severely restrict the areas in which a convicted sex offender can reside. Worst of all, New Jersey has civil commitment laws that allow the attorney general to commit a convicted sex offender to a mental institution for an indefinite period of time even after jail time has been served.
If you are accused or charged with any type of sex crime, get legal help immediately. Without a proactive and intelligent advocate at your side, the accusations could cause you to lose your job, your rights to see your children, your freedom, and your right to live where you choose.
Sex Crimes Defense Requires Both Delicacy and Aggression
At the Long Branch law firm of Koufos & Norgaard, LLC, we know very well that a criminal defense attorney must be able to handle sex crimes cases with delicacy. There is no getting around the fact that sex crimes cases are emotional powder kegs — for both the alleged victim and the alleged offender.
We have enjoyed significant success for clients charged with all manner of sex crimes — from sexual assault and rape to child molestation, child luring and possession of child pornography. Our defense lawyers have won acquittals and have negotiated sentences requiring only pre-trial intervention or probation instead of jail time.
A Notable Success: On behalf of a client facing second-degree sexual assault charges and third-degree charges of endangering the welfare of a child — for a total possible sentence of 15 years — we negotiated a suspended sentence that only required our client to attend intervention and sex offender rehabilitation courses.
