You do not have to feel cornered when facing criminal charges, we can work together to build a winning defense to protect your rights, freedom, and reputation.
Defenses can be built from the following scenarios:
- If the defendant is the parent of the alleged victim and has not violated any court orders or custody arrangements
- If the defendant had reason to believe that the alleged victim was in danger of imminent bodily harm and removed the child in an attempt to protect them
- If the alleged victim had unlawfully threatened or caused the defendant bodily harm and the defendant had no lawful alternative for preventing further harm
- If the defendant reasonably believed that he or she was acting lawfully and was ignorant to situational facts that made the actions criminal
In addition to these scenarios, there are also general legal strategies that can impact the outcome of your case. For example, the concepts of double jeopardy, insanity, compulsion, or duress can be used to lessen your charges or have the case dismissed altogether if applicable. Furthermore, the most straightforward defense of simple innocence may also be used, especially if it can be proven that the alleged victim consented to the actions that were mistaken to be criminal.
