HAVE YOU BEEN ACCUSED OF:

Marital Rape

Marital Rape is a nonconsensual sexual act alleged to have occurred within the context of a marital relationship. The accuser only has to claim a single sexual act was evoked with the use of intimidation, assault, threat, or coercion during the marriage in order to claim rape occurred. An accusation of marital rape is sometimes made or threatened during contentious divorces. Because of the complexity and nature of this type of sex accusation you need a sex crime attorney Los Angeles or sexual assault lawyer experienced in rape and investigations to find weaknesses and holes in the opposing side’s arguments and statements.

MARITAL RAPE

Marital rape is a type of sexual assault in which a person is forced to engage in sexual activity with their spouse against their will. It is considered a violation of human rights and a form of violence against women. It is also considered a form of domestic violence. Marital rape is illegal in many countires, but the laws and enforcement of those laws vary significantly.

Many people mistakenly believe the police will not investigate an allegation of rape made by one spouse against the other. However, these allegations often arise in the context of a fight between a married couple, and they often involve equally serious allegations of kidnapping, false imprisonment or domestic violence . If you are being investigated for marital rape to your spouse, it is imperative you call our professionals or defense attorneys immediately. The sooner a criminal attorney starts working, the better. In some cases, effective intervention early on by an attorney may clear you and halt the indictment.

Many people also mistakenly believe they cannot be convicted if there is no DNA evidence or other evidence corroborating the victim’s accusation. This is not true. You can be convicted when the only evidence is the victim’s word.

The mere accusation of marital rape can have a long-lasting and devastating effect on your life, including serious harm to your reputation, trauma, suffering, negligence, distress, pain,  career and personal relationships. A conviction for marital rape
can haunt you for the rest of your life. If convicted, you can face sex offender lifetime registration and severe criminal penalties, including many years in prison, expensive fines, court-ordered therapy, and have to pay compensation to the victim. Regardless of the severity or circumstances of your offense, your sex offender registration becomes a public record, strangers and your neighbors and employers will be able to see this identification indefinitely.

Los Angeles Spouse Rape Attorney

If you are a victim of spousal rape in Los Angeles, it is important that you seek help from a skilled attorney. Spousal rape is a serious crime in California and carries severe legal consequences. A Los Angeles spousal rape attorney can help protect your rights and provide you with the legal counsel you need to ensure that you are treated fairly and that justice is served. An experienced spousal rape attorney will have the knowledge and resources to evaluate your case, provide advice and representation, and help you seek the compensation you deserve.

In the beginning of Marital rape charges generally pit the word of the accused against the word of the victim. Do not be tempted to plead guilty early in these cases. Instead, you should plan on having a strong defense, by experienced criminal lawyers or sexual assault lawyers, that will overwhelm the prosecution.

Physical evidence may be available immediately after the alleged act. This evidence can be used in your defense if you obtain effective attorneys immediately. With LibertyBell Law Group at your side, you will be armed with a group of top lawyers fighting to dispose all marital rape accusations.

Rape charges are often “he said, she said” contests in which principle evidence is the word of the victim. The outcome of rape cases depends in large part on the attorneys involved and should be fought aggressively to avoid lifetime sex offender registration and harsh prison sentences.

Sexual criminal defense, such as rape or sexual assault, is different from other criminal cases and requires very specific techniques and experience. An effective defense team often employs psychologists, medical experts, private investigators and attorneys with the expertise to use these tools in the most effective manner.

One defense strategy used by our criminal attorneys is to deny the alleged marital rape occurred in the first place or the sexual act did not involve the defendant. DNA and other forensic evidence may be used to support this defense. Another strategy is to argue the sexual act was consensual. This requires skilled argumentation by your criminal attorneys and may depend strongly on the use of psychologists, character witnesses and expert private investigation services.

At LibertyBell Law Group, we understand that filing claims can be a complex and time-consuming process, so we strive to provide our clients with the best possible legal advice and assistance to ensure that their claims are handled efficiently and effectively.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY:

Gina was like a lioness protecting her cub.

    

I hired Gina and her team for my son who was facing 10 years for something they said he did when he was 17 years old. Gina was like a lioness protecting her cub. She did not stop. She fought hard and was able to defend the charges. We are so grateful to her and her team. They gave us our son. He recovered his life!

Best defense lawyers in the country.

    

I hired this law firm in 2014 for my son who was facing 16 years in prison for a felony robbery. Lina Helou answered all our questions. I was extremely distraught regarding what my son was facing but Lina comforted me and told me that it would be okay. And thank goodness LibertyBell saved my son from going to jail and they were able to obtain only 3 years of probation. I could not have hired a better law firm for my son and if you want the best defense call LibertyBell Law Group. Thank God for this great group of lawyers.

– V. J.

I do not have enough words to describe how incredible the experience with this firm was. They work very hard to make sure you have winning results. I could not have asked for better service from the moment I called, until my case was over. I was glad I made the right choice. Thank you again LibertyBell Law Group!

She took her time to review all of my evidence and proved my innocence.

    

My father had found this group through his company and coworkers. I was assigned Gina Tennen and I cannot explain in just a review on how gratefull I am to be working with her. My case was an accusation of unlawful sex. This had looked extremely bad on my part since I was in a fraternity and she was in a sorority. During these times with Greek life, there are too many bad stigmas surrounding these organizations. Gina had believed in me and knew that I was innocent and that these accusations just were not true. She took her time to review all of my evidence and proved my innocence. I totally recommend this law group because they are willing to put in the work to help your situation.

Gina always kept me fully aware of how the case was proceeding.

    

When I first heard I was under a criminal investigation, I initially thought I would try and resolve this in the best way possible, without legal representation, as we were all interested in a "just" outcome. I quickly discovered that was not the case and contacted Gina at LibertyBell. She clearly described the expectations and the choices available to me. She was always available to me, and when I called, if she couldn't talk with me at that time, she would quickly get back to me. Gina always kept me fully aware of how the case was proceeding. Her fee's were stipulated up front, as well as what those fees covered and what they did not.

– S. B.
Attorney Gina Tennen was on point from day one.

    

Attorney Gina Tennen was on point from day one putting pressure on the sherrif's office to get things handled. With Child molestation accusatinos being thrown around Gina and Attorney Castro were great at keeping the pressure on and had no charges filled. The DCFS indications were appealed and we won with flying colors. Great service, great work, and will use again for all legal matters.

Will Recommend, Total Experience, Awesome Team

    

Being involved in legal matters can be scary. When researching who to put my trust in, I came across Liberty and I am glad that I did. From the first time that I met with Gina and her team she made me feel comfortable and listened to all that I had to say. She assured me that her team would be on it and that they would do everything that they could! A little while in, Alan took over my case. When meeting with him you can tell that this is his passion and I immediately knew he was going to do everything in his power to make the outcome right! He was relentless and worked day and night working on the case. He kept in constant communication with me and truly cared not only about me but about my family as well. I am forever grateful for the support that this whole team has given me and would definitely recommend them to anyone who is looking for truly the best lawyers!
