Among the offenses we can advise you about and defend you against are the following sex crimes:

• Forcible rape, aggravated sexual assault, violent sexual assault, or rape with a weapon
• Statutory rape charges such as sex with a minor, sex with a person under 16, or such charges as indecent exposure, lewd and lascivious conduct, or molestation of a child
• Sex offenses charged against persons in a position of responsibility or authority over a person under 18, such as a teacher, coach, health care provider, or spiritual adviser
• Internet sex crimes, such as solicitation of a minor for sex or possession of child pornography

No matter the sex offense you might be charged with, we can help you find a way to confront and defend against the allegations. Whether your best option will involve a plea to a lesser offense, an attempt to suppress the evidence against you on constitutional grounds, or presentation of your defense to a jury, we will work directly with you and give you the information you need to make the best decisions for your specific situation.

We also represent members of licensed professions who can expect disciplinary action with devastating consequences for their careers upon conviction of the offense charged. Not only can we handle the defense of your sex crime case in criminal court, we can also protect your license or negotiate the terms of a reprimand or suspension before your licensing board.

Egenberg emphasizes open communication, informed decision making, and tireless work on behalf of his clients to achieve the best result possible in any given case.
