Tampa & Sarasota Sexual Battery Lawyers
Florida Sex Crimes Defense Attorneys
Sexual battery is potentially one of the most disturbing and disastrous types of sex crime charges in Florida. Certain violent sexual battery charges involving children under the age of 12 actually are considered capital felonies, which include the death sentence for the person convicted. A typical sexual battery charge, however, per Florida legislature, is punished as a second degree felony with a maximum sentence of 15 years in state prison.
As with any sex crime, a sexual battery charge requires an experienced and aggressive defense lawyer to defend your rights. You will need a lawyer who is not afraid of standing up against a tough prosecution team and making sure your side of the story is communicated to the jury. Often in sexual battery cases, the jury may be hard to reach because of the terrible and descriptive accusations they have heard. A sexual battery attorney who can break through that barrier and make sure the jury hears the truth is what you need.
