Sexual Offence Solicitors in Manchester

Our sexual offence solicitors in Manchester

Rape

Rape is an extremely serious criminal offence. It carries significant penalties, including life imprisonment in the most severe cases.

Our sexual offence lawyers in Manchester have specialist expertise in handling rape cases, including high-profile and complex matters. We will work closely with you to build the strongest possible defence, helping to secure a positive outcome under even the most challenging circumstances.

Sexual assault

Charges for sexual assault can vary depending on the circumstances of the case. That said, in every instance, it is essential that you seek out expert legal support from our sexual offence solicitors in Manchester if you are facing an accusation of sexual assault.

We are highly experienced in handling cases of sexual assault, and our strong track record of success ensures that we can provide the strongest possible defence.

Child sex offences

We understand how sensitive and complex child sexual offence investigations can be. We also appreciate how difficult it can be to deal with accusations of this nature, especially as the ramifications are often extremely serious.

Our sexual offence solicitors in Manchester can provide support and legal guidance at every stage of a child sexual offence investigation, helping to limit any potential negative impact on both you and your loved ones and handling your case with sensitivity.

Abuse of a position of trust

If you are an individual in a ‘position of trust’, such as a teacher, sports coach, or foster carer, it can be devastating to be accused of abusing that trust.

We can step in to handle your case if you have been accused of committing a sexual offence by abusing a position of trust, helping you at every stage of an investigation.

Grooming

Individuals, or groups of individuals who are alleged to have developed a relationship with a child for the purposes of manipulation or exploitation, may be investigated for child grooming.

From initial police station interviews to potential court appearances, our Manchester sexual offences solicitors are highly skilled at representing clients at every stage of proceedings.

Voyeurism

Acts of voyeurism are criminal offences and can result in prison sentences in certain situations.

Our sexual offence solicitors in Manchester can advise you on your position and step in to defend you if you are accused of voyeurism.

Indecent exposure

Public nudity is more than simply frowned upon. In many instances, it can be considered indecent exposure, resulting in criminal charges being brought forward.

Upon instruction, our Manchester sex crime solicitors will work alongside you to establish a strong defence against the allegations you are facing, ultimately helping you to secure a positive outcome for your case.

Outraging public decency

While similar in nature to indecent exposure, outraging public decency involves actions that are considered to be lewd and obscene as judged by a jury in a ‘contemporary society’. As a more serious offence, the sentencing threshold and potential punishments are higher, necessitating the need for expert legal support.

Our specialists will work with you to build a strong defence against allegations of outraging public decency, increasing your chances of avoiding penalties or receiving reduced charges if a conviction is unavoidable.

Historic sexual offences

It can come as a huge shock to be accused of a historical sexual offence, especially if the allegations date back many years. These are often very complex cases which involve various forms of digital and/or forensic evidence, so it’s vital that you have the highest standard of legal representation on your side.

With vast levels of experience in handling historic sexual offences dating back many years, our sexual offence lawyers in Manchester know exactly how to handle these complex cases to best protect your legal rights and reputation.

Administering a substance intending to commit a sexual offence

It is a criminal offence to intentionally administer a substance where consent is not provided and the intention is to overpower someone so that they can engage in sexual activity. This offence covers the use of so-called ‘date rape’ drugs.

If you have been accused of administering a substance intending to commit a sexual offence, our Manchester sex offence lawyers can provide immediate support.

Prostitution related offences

Any offences related to the act of prostitution can be met with significant penalties, so it is essential that you instruct specialist representation as early as possible.

We have strong expertise in defending clients accused of prostitution-related offences, with a detailed understanding of all of the various legislation that these types of offences can be prosecuted under.

Possession of indecent images

Merely possessing indecent images can be enough to warrant a prison sentence, which can be an understandably distressing prospect. If you are accused of possessing indecent images, our sexual offence solicitors in Manchester can help.

We can carefully review your case and the relevant evidence to make sure you have the strongest possible defence against the allegations you are facing, including where necessary, instructing expert evidence.

Distribution of pornographic material

Distributing pornographic material can be a criminal offence, particularly if it involves "extreme" or child pornography.

It is therefore crucial that you seek out the support and representation of our expert sexual offence solicitors in Manchester when facing this type of allegation.
