Despite the headlines about the low conviction rate in sexual offence trials, it has, in fact, never been easier to make an allegation that results in criminal proceedings. The legal requirement for corroboration was repealed some time ago and the Sexual Offences Act 2003 brought new laws that were designed to "improve" the conviction rates.

Facing such an allegation is a highly stressful experience for the defendant and their family. We understand this and will structure our advice and representation to reduce the anxiety these proceedings create.

Through the careful selection of an appropriate trial barrister we will ensure that the accusations are challenged in the most effective way.

We also have experience challenging the imposition of Sexual Offences Prevention Orders (SOPO) when sought by the police.
