ACTUAL CASE RESULTS

Defense Considerations

Charges of rape are often based largely on the testimony of the accuser and defendant. Often, there are no material witnesses or physical evidence. In the case of date rape, the accuser may even be the spouse of the defendant.

In such cases, the preparation of one's defense requires careful pre-trial investigative work. Often, criminal history, psychological profiles, possible motives, character witnesses and other circumstantial information can be obtained to keep these cases from going to trial.

Rape charges can be difficult to prove. An aggressive, skilled defense and early intervention can be quite effective in these cases.
