WHAT'S AT STAKE

Sexual assault is a second-degree felony in Texas, and aggravated sexual assault is a first-degree felony carrying up to life in prison. Beyond incarceration, a conviction usually means mandatory sex-offender registration — a public label that restricts where you can live and work for years or for life.

These cases often rest on one person's word against another's, with little physical evidence. Credibility, consent, and forensic detail become everything — and that's where a rigorous defense makes the difference.

TEXAS SEX CRIME PENALTIES

SEXUAL ASSAULT
Second-Degree Felony

2–20 years in prison and a fine up to $10,000, plus registration requirements.

AGGRAVATED
First-Degree Felony

5–99 years or life in prison for aggravated sexual assault.

REGISTRATION
Lifelong Consequence

Most sex-crime convictions require sex-offender registration, restricting residence and employment.

General guidance only, not legal advice. Enhancements and prior offenses change exposure significantly. Call for advice on your specific situation.

HOW I DEFEND SEXUAL ASSAULT CHARGES

Consent

When the encounter was consensual, that is a full defense. I present the facts and context that show it.

Attack Credibility

These cases turn on the accuser's account. Motive, inconsistency, and bias all create reasonable doubt.

Scrutinize Forensics

DNA, medical exams, and timelines must be handled correctly. I bring in experts to test the science.

Expose False Allegations

Custody disputes, revenge, and regret can drive false claims. I investigate what's really behind the accusation.

SEXUAL ASSAULT QUESTIONS, ANSWERED

Will I have to register as a sex offender?+

Many sex-crime convictions require registration, but not every outcome does. Avoiding a conviction — or securing a charge that doesn't trigger registration — is a central goal of your defense.

It's a false allegation — how do I fight it?+

False accusations are more common than people think, often tied to custody, relationships, or revenge. I investigate the accuser's motive and expose the inconsistencies in the story.

What does DNA evidence actually prove?+

DNA can confirm contact but rarely proves whether an encounter was consensual — which is often the real issue. I bring in experts to put forensic evidence in proper context.

What should I do right now?+

Say nothing to police and contact me immediately. Anything you say can be used against you, and early, careful defense work is critical in these cases.

EVERY HOUR MATTERS.

The sooner I'm on your case, the more I can do. Free, confidential consultation — day or night.
