Defending Against Severe State Allegations

Our attorneys counter the tactics of the Specialized Victims Unit of the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office and the Sheriff’s ICAC Task Force to build a strong defense.
Technical And Forensic Defense Strategies
Prosecutors in Waukegan sex crime cases rely heavily on data and medical records. Our attorneys use technical strategies to challenge the state’s evidence, dismantling digital files, metadata and SANE nurse reports.
Our main goal is to keep your name off the public Illinois Sex Offender Registry. Our attorneys seek full case dismissals, trial acquittals or reduced charges to nonregistrable offenses.
Frequently Asked Questions
Below are answers to common questions about local sex crime cases we often get from our clients.
How do Waukegan prosecutors handle sex crime evidence?
The state uses specific methods to build cases, relying on investigators and digital data. Our attorneys counter these methods by working with forensic computer and medical experts to identify gaps in the prosecution’s proof.
Can a sex crime case move forward if there is no physical evidence?
Many people think a case needs physical proof. In Lake County, the state can prosecute based on one person’s word. Our attorneys use thorough background checks to uncover potential motives to lie, working to weaken the state’s case.
