Cape Coral Sexual Battery Attorneys
If you or a family member is facing a charge of sexual battery (formerly known as Rape) in Florida, there is no time to lose in getting a strong, respected criminal defense firm involved — even if you believe the charge is entirely without merit. Often, all it takes is an unverified claim by a child to bring a charge that can put you in prison for life. In Florida, if sentenced to Life, you spend the rest of your life in jail. Life means Life.
The consequences of a conviction are extremely serious, and untangling a web of allegations and legal complexities will require a skilled lawyer with experience in comparable cases. Under Florida law, sexual battery is the equivalent of a rape charge, although it can cover a wide range of types of physical contact and circumstances. Penalties upon conviction can include life imprisonment or a decades-long sentence combined with required registration as a violent sex offender.
