You Can't Count on the System to Play Fair
The most important thing to realize after you have been accused of a sex crime is that the criminal justice system is not on your side. The American legal system promises fair treatment under law for all, but in practice this does not always occur. This is especially true in cases involving sex crimes. People who are accused of crimes such as the possession of child pornography, child molestation and rape very often find that everyone around them assumes their guilt. Despite the fact that you have not yet had your day in court and your opportunity to challenge the evidence at trial, you may be receiving the scorn of your colleagues, your neighbors or perhaps even some of your friends and family. Your reputation and your freedom are on the line, and you owe it to yourself to hire a Lexington sex crime attorney who is ready to fight for you.
To make the situation even worse, you cannot trust the police or the prosecutor to play fairly. Remember: The job of the police is to solve crimes and arrest criminals, and they will make an arrest whenever they believe that they have evidence that a person is guilty of a crime. They won't listen to your explanation of the story with a view to the evidence of your innocence; everything you say and do will be evaluated towards establishing your guilt. Similarly, a prosecutor's success is judged by the rate at which he or she secures convictions, and you have now fallen under the crosshairs of the state, you are being targeted with the goal of convicting you.
Criminal Justice Is a Zero-Sum Game
Furthermore, state and federal prosecutors routinely charge people with crimes that are all out of proportion to the circumstances of the situation, with the goal of intimidating the suspect into accepting a fast and easy plea bargain, an approach that helps them chalk up convictions with a minimum of time and effort. It is an unfortunate consequence of how the criminal justice system works, with the prosecutor playing a zero-sum game against the defendant, fighting to win at all odds and often at the expense of true justice.

"I knew I was innocent and she knew I was, too and had all charges dropped."
Ashley took care of everything for me. I was in a panic and started randomly calling lawyers around 3 a.m. on a Sunday. Got all answering machines until I dialed her number and she picked up. After hearing me out, she calmed me down and agreed to meet me at her office as soon as I could get there. I knew I was innocent and she knew I was, too and had all charges dropped. I felt bad about calling her at such an early hour and told her but she brushed me off saying she'd always be there for me.- Former Client -
"I did not receive probation or jail time and was only charged court cost."
Had one consultation and one court date. Ashley explained everything and recommended what she thought was the best action to take. I did not receive probation or jail time and was only charged court costs. Have already recommended her to a friend and would do so again.- Jack -

"10 months of bogus sexual charges and living hell-they were there every step of the way."
Adam and Stephenie were AMAZING. 10 months of bogus sexual charges and living hell-they were there every step of the way. They always responded promptly and honestly. Due to the lack of evidence the case was fought easily in court, but they were prepared 100 percent. I have recommended them to many already. His firm is honest and knowledgeable. I can't say enough. They allowed our family to sit back and relax in court and let do their jobs. True professionals.- Scott A.
