Ontario Child Exploitation Defence Lawyer · Toronto Sex Crimes Defence
Sexual interference charges can be brought by the Crown any time prosecutors feel there is evidence of sexual assault on a minor-aged victim who they feel lacks the ability to provide consent. That can even mean circumstances when the perpetrator and victim share a relationship.
Sexual exploitation charges can be made against a perpetrator when the prosecution feels the victim — of any age — lacks the capacity to consent. This may often be the case when a vulnerable adult claims to have been sexually assaulted by a home health care aide or personal assistant. I am Toronto sexual assault defence lawyer Aitan M. Lerner. If you have been charged with sexual assault, interference or exploitation, don't wait to see what the Crown will do next.
Contact me immediately to discuss the circumstances of your charges. In cases of interference and exploitation, stories change quickly. If a child or a vulnerable adult is the accuser, the court of public opinion often stacks the deck against you. Prosecutors go the extra mile to gather evidence. You need defence counsel that will go the extra measure to thoroughly investigate and prepare the strongest case possible.
Seeking the Best Possible Outcome
At my law firm, you don't have to worry about being judged for the offence you are charged with. You will face enough of that by the public, police and prosecutors. My only focus is on ensuring that your rights are protected and you obtain the absolute best possible outcome for your case. I am proud of my record of success and have earned recognition by peers and clients for my commitment and compassionate approach to getting results.
I Wear Two Hats
As your defence lawyer, I approach every case from two perspectives. First, my job is to provide sound, experienced legal advice to ensure that you understand the criminal justice system and how to proceed to get you through to the other side of your charges. Yes, you will get through this.
My second job is to fight fearlessly to help you obtain the best possible result. That often means calling into question the credibility of police officers, witnesses and your accuser. In the pursuit of justice on your behalf, I don't concern myself with the fallout or public reputation of a witness who may be found to be less than honest. That's what I mean when I say "fearless advocacy."
