Aggressive Defense When The Stakes Are High
Any sort of sexual offense involving children can result in severe consequences. These cases are extremely complex and emotional, and having the representation of a highly experienced defense attorney is critical for your future.
Attorney Phillip Stackhouse has more than 20 years of experience in assisting service members and civilian contractors who face sex crime allegations. Representing individuals in California and worldwide, he provides knowledgeable legal counsel for the most challenging of criminal cases.
Sexual Offenses Involving Minors
When you face child molestation or pornography charges, it is essential to contact an attorney immediately. You cannot delay as things will only get worse. Consequences of these serious offenses can be grave, including:
- Involuntary discharge from service
- Loss of your military career
- Conviction for a felony offense
- Sex offender registration
- Possible jail time, fines and other steep penalties
Child Pornography Charges Can Damage Your Future
Our attorney has experienced defending clients against a range of pornography offenses, including the possession, distribution or manufacturing of child pornography. Of these three offenses, possession or receipt, are the most common.
The problem with possession is you may not even realize it happened. Computer viruses, pop-up ads and malware can all contribute to the unintentional possession of illegal pornography. Moreover, explicit videos or photos downloaded from popular file-sharing programs could include child pornography hidden within the files. Law enforcement often conducts internet “dragnets” capturing anyone connected to a site or downloads.
Providing An Aggressive Defense Strategy
Suspicion of child molestation and pornography charges can quickly escalate to prosecution using computer evidence. Once law enforcement officials suspect your offense, they will track your IP address, obtain a search warrant and seize your possessions, including your computer, hard drives and flash drives.
Our attorney works with highly skilled computer forensic analysts. Together, they examine key evidence within your browser and file history, including determining the download date of files, whether they were opened and more. We provide aggressive representation throughout the duration of your case to protect your rights and guard against harsh penalties.
