What You’re Facing If Convicted

Sex crimes in Massachusetts carry some of the most severe penalties on the books:

• Felony or misdemeanor convictions
• Mandatory minimum prison time for some offenses
• Sex Offender Registration (SORB Levels 1–3)
• GPS monitoring or probation restrictions
• Loss of employment, housing, and community standing
• Restraining orders and lifetime restrictions

Even the accusation alone can result in stigma, lost opportunities, and family turmoil—which is why a strong defense is essential from the start.

Our Defense Strategy for Sex Offenses in Stoughton

We approach every case with the goal of avoiding conviction, protecting your privacy, and challenging weak or flawed allegations. Our legal strategy includes:

• Challenging unconstitutional searches, phone seizures, or interviews
• Uncovering false reports or inconsistencies in the accuser’s statements
• Investigating motives for fabrication (e.g. custody battles, revenge, jealousy)
• Filing motions to suppress illegally obtained statements or digital evidence
• Working with digital forensic experts when needed
• Negotiating CWOFs or diversion to avoid conviction and registration when possible

We’re familiar with the judges and prosecutors in Stoughton District Court, and we know how to structure a defense that fits the facts, the forum, and your future goals.

FAQs – Sex Crime Charges in Stoughton

What if the accusation was exaggerated or false?
We’ve handled many cases where relationships ended badly or misunderstandings spiraled. We investigate motive, timeline, and inconsistencies to uncover the truth.

Do I have to register as a sex offender?
Only if convicted of specific qualifying charges. We fight to resolve cases in a way that avoids registration entirely whenever possible.

Can my case be sealed later?
Yes—if resolved properly. Many CWOFs and dismissed cases can be sealed after a waiting period. We’ll guide you through the process.
