Rape Defense Lawyer in Waterbury, New Haven, Hartford and All Connecticut Cities

Have you been charged with Rape or Statutory Rape in a Connecticut criminal Court in Danbury, Middletown, Stamford or other Connecticut city?

You should contact a Statutory Rape or Rape defense attorney at Pattis and Smith immediately. Our experienced criminal defense lawyers have been successful at aggressively defending people in Rape and Statutory Rape cases as well as against other serious criminal charges for 20 years.

Here are some things Norm Pattis, one of the country’s most experienced trial attorneys and founder of Pattis and Smith, wants you to know:

• Rape is a serious violent offense and the potential penalties include significant prison time;
• Factors in the Rape charges will include possibility of consent, record of prior convictions, strength of the evidence, credibility of the accuser, and reputation/credibility of the defendant;
• If your civil rights were violated in your arrest or if the evidence against you was gathered in a way that was a civil rights violation, our criminal defense lawyers can have the arrest invalidated, the evidence excluded, and the charges dismissed;
• If you are innocent of the crime charged, for instance if this was consensual sex, or if there are circumstances that can be explained, you should understand the police sometimes get it wrong and you will be wise to consult a criminal attorney prior to speaking with them;

The prosecutor and district attorney have already spent quite a bit of time lining up a case against you including police reports, witnesses, coaching the accuser, and developing other evidence. You must act quickly to prevent the state from gaining even more of an unfair advantage.

Whether this is your first charge or if you have a record of prior offenses it is important to talk to the experienced Connecticut Rape and Statutory Rape lawyers at Pattis and Smith immediately to preserve your rights;

Norm Pattis and Pattis and Smith lawyers will quickly look for weaknesses in the state’s case and our activities will include an immediate demand for every detail of the case against you, motions to exclude evidence, investigation into the credibility of witnesses and the accuser, review of your background to identify all factors a prosecutor may consider in looking at a dismissal or reduction of the Rape charge or that a judge can use to dismiss the case or limit the penalty to probation or a short term in country jail rather than state prison.

We want to protect your rights and help get the Rape charge against you reduced or dismissed altogether. We will aggressively defend you against criminal charges and we are available 7 days a week, 24 hours a day!
