New York Rape Defense Attorney

Rape is an offense that involves nonconsensual or forced sexual intercourse. If you or someone you know has been accused of rape, they may be at risk of facing an extensive term of imprisonment - possibly up to 25 years depending on the situation. At Conaway & Strickler, P.C. our experienced New York sex crime lawyers represent clients facing all types of rape-related charges, including date rape and statutory rape.

No matter the particular circumstances of your charges, it is highly recommended that you consult an attorney as soon as possible if you are a suspect in a rape investigation or if you have been accused of this offense. Whether or not formal charges have been filed, you are at risk of facing felony charges and serious criminal penalties. You will need a lawyer to protect your constitutional rights and work to help you avoid a conviction. Sex offender registration is one penalty that will remain with a person for life, limiting where he or she can live and work, and often creating social ostracism and a ruined reputation.
