Sexual offence crimes and a sexual offence
solicitor: what you need to know
ABV Solicitors
If you have been taken in for questioning at a police station in connection with a sexual offence, or you
have been charged on suspicion of committing a sexual offence, then it is clearly a serious situation for
you. Under these circumstances, it is highly advisable that you seek the support of a sexual offence
solicitor from the earliest possible stage to ensure that you achieve the best possible outcome for your
specific case. A sexual offence solicitor should be available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to assist you
when being questioned at the police station. This is because the police can take you in for this at any time
of the day or night. It can be a highly distressing time, especially when any public knowledge of what you
have been questioned about can lead to a loss of reputation, employment and at worst, your freedom.
This is why having a sexual offence solicitor is essential.
How can a solicitor help me at the police station?
When you are being questioned by the police, a sexual offence solicitor will be able to support you at this
time. They will advise on what you need to answer and they will challenge any questions that are
inappropriate for you. They will also ensure that all due processes have been followed. If they have not,
they may be able to have you released and prevent any charges being brought against you. Having a
sexual offence solicitor to think clearly for you, when you are overwhelmed by what may be a surprising
turn of events for you could be exactly what you need to get you through. They will also be able to explain
to you what is happening and, if you are charged, they can explain what this means and what they can
then do about it to put your mind at rest.
