On Your Side Against Sex Crime Allegations
If you have been accused of a sex crime, you may feel like everyone is against you, from the police and prosecutors to personal acquaintances who have heard about your arrest. The media tends to forget the fact that you are innocent until proven guilty, causing irreparable harm to your reputation. You need a lawyer who will take your side and back you up.
I'm California criminal defense attorney Nabiel C. Ahmed, and I am devoted to providing vigorous representation to people accused of sex crimes. Based in Oakland, I serve clients throughout the bay Area. Contact me today for a free consultation.
Avoiding Sex Offender Registration and Other Serious Penalties
There are a number of different crimes that are considered sex crimes under California law, including crimes against both adults and children. I am experienced at defending clients against many of the most common sex crime charges, including:
- Rape and sexual assault
- Child molestation
- Solicitation of prostitution
- Lewd and lascivious conduct
- Indecent exposure
There are a wide range of penalties that can be imposed on someone convicted of one of these crimes. In particular, certain sex crimes carry a penalty of mandatory lifetime sex offender registration under Megan's Law.
Carefully Approaching Every Aspect of Your Case
I will do everything within my power to help you avoid the serious consequences of a sex crime conviction. These are difficult cases to defend, so it is important to get a skilled advocate who understands your side of the story and where you are coming from.
Juries tend to be sympathetic to alleged sex crime victims, so your defense attorney must be able to effectively cross-examine a witness without being seen as aggressive or abusive.
I have the legal knowledge and ability to handle these cases, but also a basic understanding of what it takes to connect with a jury, a judge or prosecutor and effectively advocate for my clients.
