Experienced Defense of Sex Crimes in North Carolina
At the Raleigh-Durham law firm of Rudy Renfer, our experience with the investigation and defense of sex crimes can help our clients resolve serious charges favorably. If you have been accused of rape, statutory rape or an Internet sex offense, contact a seasoned criminal defense lawyer to learn about your options and potential defenses.
Sex offenses are serious crimes, and the penalties if convicted can be severe: long prison sentences, obligations to register as a sex offender for many years and the stigma associated with a sex crime. North Carolina criminal defense attorney Rudy Renfer understands what you're facing, and can protect you to the greatest extent possible given the facts of your case.
We work with you to investigate and develop every available defense that may lead to the reduction of the criminal charge, a dismissal or a not guilty verdict. These defenses might include consent, issues involving the state of mind of the alleged victim or the defendant, mental illness, mistaken identity or procedural violations of your constitutional rights by investigators or the police.
An important right enjoyed by every criminal defendant is the government's obligation to prove every relevant fact beyond a reasonable doubt. Our ability to raise doubt in the minds of jurors at trial gives us valuable leverage in negotiating satisfactory outcomes with the prosecution in sex crime cases.
Whether your criminal charge involves sexual assault, date rape, sex with a minor or violation of a sex offender registry rule, we can evaluate your case and offer sound advice. Contact Rudy Renfer at his office in Raleigh to learn more about your legal options in a sex crime case.
