Arizona Sex Offense Lawyer
We Value Your Freedom
A criminal defense lawyer is most likely to encounter innocent clients in cases involving allegations of child molestation. Other sex offense charges are also proven to be false in many cases. In any case, a prosecutor must bear the responsibility of proving that sex offense allegations are true in order to obtain a conviction.
If you have been accused of sexual assault, rape, or molestation in Arizona, your need for an experienced Arizona sex offense lawyer is urgent. William Foreman, P.C., serving Phoenix, Scottsdale, and surrounding areas, welcomes contact from people facing sex offense charges involving the following:
- aggravated sexual assault
- assault and battery
- child enticement
- child molestation
- child pornography, including Internet crimes
- date rape
- FMS (False Memory Syndrome)
- indecent exposure
- internet pornography
- lewd or lascivious conduct

- pimping
- prostitution

- sex offender registration
In the event that you have been accused of child molestation, it is important to know how such charges come about, and the most effective methods of defense. William Foreman, P.C., regularly engages the services of an SVA (statement validity assessment) psychologist to gather evidence as to the validity of the accusations. Discovery may include preparation of a videotaped statement by the alleged victim, and examination of any written statements by the alleged victim, the “outcry witness” (the person who first heard the child’s allegations), and any other alleged witnesses. Often, a motivation to lie on the part of the outcry witness is uncovered – such as a motive of personal retaliation against the defendant. A jilted ex-girlfriend or ex-wife may have such a motivation to stimulate false accusations from a child.
This is but one example of avenues that a skillful sex offense attorney might follow in search of the most effective defense for a person accused of sexual assault. William Foreman, P.C., examines all possible instances of illegal search and seizure which may have resulted in a criminal investigation or criminal charges.
Regardless of the circumstances, motivations, or truth behind allegations of sexual assault, the need for effective defense is critical. Keep out of jail. Protect your clean criminal record. Prevent sex offender registry status. Contact William Foreman, P.C. to schedule a free initial consultation.
