Have Your Been Charged with a Sex Offense?

If you have been charged with a sex offense, or if you even suspect that you may be accused of an offense,contact Shell, Nermyr, Burkhart, LLC,  right away. Do not attempt to handle this situation on your own. Even if you have deleted incriminating files from your computer, experts for the prosecution may retrieve them. Often in these cases, police will stage a “confrontation call,” in which the accuser calls the accused on the phone. If you receive such a phone call from your accuser, hang up immediately. Do not apologize. Do not even speak. Your words will be used against you.

Sex offenses in Arizona are non-bondable crimes, meaning, bail will not be set, and you will not be released from jail unless your case is dismissed or you are found “not guilty.” Our lawyers can advise you about how to get your affairs in order, should you face jail time. However, you should contact our Tempe Arizona  office first, for your best chance at avoiding this possibility. The alternative may be life in prison. The lawyers of Shell, Nermyr, Burkhart, LLC, are available 24-hours a day, 7 days a week to take your call.
