If you have been accused of a sexual offense, you need an experienced attorney to make sure that your rights and your reputation are protected.

At White & Hearne, L.L.P., our attorneys have successfully defended clients from sex crimes charges in the past. Contact a Wilmington sex crimes lawyer to discuss your case and we will begin building your defense.

Defending You From Sex Crime Charges

Our attorneys have obtained "not guilty" verdicts for clients accused of sex crimes in North Carolina. We will use our extensive criminal defense experience to defend you from charges, such as:

• Statutory rape
• Forcible rape
• Indecent liberties with a child
• Prostitution
• Solicitation of a prostitute
• Misdemeanor sexual battery

Many people are quick to assume guilt when it comes to those accused of sex crimes. This assumption can have a negative impact on your relationships and ability to win your case in court.

Our team of criminal defense experts will work to minimize exposure and avoid the charge from becoming public and damaging your reputation. We will investigate the facts in order to build a strong defense to these allegations. If your case goes to trial, our attorneys will vigorously defend you in court.

Sex Offender Registration

If you plead guilty or are convicted of a sexual offense, you will have to register as a sex offender for 10 years. This means local schools and day care facilities will be informed of your presence when you move into a neighborhood. They will be able to see your name and your picture. This can affect not only where you live but also your ability to get a job.

Our sex crimes lawyers strive to help you avoid conviction and keep your name off of the sex offender registry. If your name is wrongly placed on the registry, we will work to have it removed.

Experience. Dedication. Results.
